The Ohlins YA735 STX 46 Street rear shock is built for the Yamaha XVS 650 Drag Star, targeting improved chassis control and clearer feedback on the road. It uses a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated damping design to help maintain consistency as conditions change. Designed as a direct-fit rear mono shock, it provides a solid platform for both everyday riding and more committed cornering.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins street shocks apply proven damping architecture and manufacturing quality with a focus on predictable feel. The aim is controlled movement and repeatable response, not harshness.

Shock design & features

  • STX 46 Street series rear mono shock for street use
  • Gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated damping system to support consistent performance
  • Designed specifically for the Yamaha XVS 650 Drag Star fitment

Base setup (factory preset)

This shock is supplied with an Ohlins baseline setting intended to suit the standard fitment and typical street riding. Fine-tuning is done via the rebound adjuster and preload to suit load, tyres, and ride feel.

Before you install

  • Confirm your exact model and year match for the Yamaha XVS 650 Drag Star before fitting
  • Set static and rider sag using preload before adjusting rebound
  • Check clearance around the shock and ensure all fasteners are torqued to the motorcycle manufacturer’s specifications

Serviceability/lifecycle

As with all performance dampers, regular servicing helps maintain damping consistency and seal life. Service intervals depend on use, environment, and storage conditions.
