BMW ESA Compatible Replacement Motorcycle Shock Absorbers

BMW ESA Compatible Shocks

Fix ageing BMW ESA shocks with rebuildable TracTive, Ohlins and YSS replacements. These ESA-compatible shock absorbers restore damping precision, reduce fault codes and deliver sharper handling with smoother comfort while retaining Comfort, Sport and Dynamic electronics functions. TracTive's patented DDA valve reacts up to 20x faster than conventional valves to maintain precise damping in milliseconds.

Restore ESA control and long-term serviceability

  • Replace failing ESA units with rebuildable TracTive, Ohlins or YSS dampers
  • Improved stability, traction and predictable cornering feedback
  • Full ESA compatibility - no coding tricks or warning lights
  • Serviceable internals for revalve and rebuild instead of full replacement

Recommended Pairings

Consider matching shocks with Suspension Tools for fitment and setup.
