Öhlins‘ shock absorbers
BMW R1200R
Are the best that you can fit to your motorbike‘s chassis.
We have tested many different shock absorber systems and have come to the conclusion that Öhlins‘ shock absorbers are the first
choice. Since then all our motorcycles have been fitted with these shock absorbers.
This refit has improved the chassis considerably (when front and rear match). All Öhlins‘ shock absorbers work on the „de carbon“ principle.
There are several different types of shock absorbers that have been specially adapted to the corresponding motor bike.
The reason why Öhlins‘ shock absorbers work so well is their precision!
BMW R 1200 R front: Typ S36 DR1L
The gas volume is incorporated into the shock absorber body so
that the shock absorber fits into the narrow slot in the steering
head. Spring preload can be adjusted continuously by hand.
WARNING: Exchanging an ESA suspension for this part disables
the electronic suspension adjustment.

BMW R 1200 R rear: Typ S46 R1C1LS
The spring preload is adjusted hydraulically via a hand wheel.
The hose in a length to suit the motorbike allows for fitting the
hand wheel in an easily accessible location on the bike. The fork
has an external fluid reservoir.
Rebound is adjustable.
WARNING: Exchanging an ESA suspension for this part disables
the electronic suspension adjustment.
