The Ohlins YA715 STX 46 Street rear shock is built for riders who want more controlled damping and clearer chassis feel from their Yamaha XV 1700 Road Warrior. Designed for road use with race-derived damping architecture, it aims to improve stability through corners and under braking. The gas-pressurised layout helps maintain consistent damping during longer rides.
