Ohlins STX Performance Rear Shocks For Harley Touring 1990-2025 Installation

Ohlins STX Performance Rear Shocks For Harley Touring

Ohlin's DR line features rebound, and preload adjustments so you can dial in your shocks exactly the way you like them! . Unlike standard gas over oil systems, Ohlins features a specially divided internal piston which keeps the gas and oil separate. This provides exceptionally consistent performance and avoids fade from use. The external rebound adjuster allows you to tailor the shock to your preferences and customize the feel for each ride.

Heading to the twisties? Give the adjuster a turn to the right to restrict oil flow for a more aggressive feel. Need maximum comfort for the long haul? Twist it to the left to increase oil flow for a comfortably plush ride. Finally, 13" shocks offer a length adjustment allows you to fine tune the height of the shock independent of the preload.

Features:

STX monotube high pressure gas shock absorber with internal reservoir
Adjustable rebound damping with adjuster wheel above the end eye
Built-in adjustable preload
Nitrogen charged
Precision CNC-machined components
Low-friction piston rod and eyelets
Serviceable and repairable
Includes pre-load tool
Sold as a pair

Fitment Notes & Exceptions

Shock lengths are measured fully extended, eyelet to eyelet on centers
A change in height at one end of the bike may require a change at the other
Changing ride height can potentially change the trail and mechanical trail
Prior to purchasing shocks that are different than your OEM length, please verify that wheel and suspension travel can be altered without causing clearance issues to the swingarm, axle, frame, tire, fender, chain/belt and guard, and exhaust
