Öhlins has built racing suspension in Sweden since 1976 and holds championships across MotoGP, World Superbike and off-road. Its Harley-Davidson touring and Softail shocks bring genuine road-race damping technology to bikes that left the factory heavily compromised on suspension travel and control.
Upgrade the front end of your 2018-2022 Harley-Davidson Softail Fat with the Ohlins NIX 22 Fork Cartridge Kit. Featuring a 22mm piston and external adjusters for compression, rebound, and preload, this kit dramatically improves your bike's handling and ride quality.
Drawing on decades of Ohlins suspension tuning expertise, the NIX 22 kit delivers stable damping and enhanced street comfort, boosting your confidence in every turn and over every bump. This advanced cartridge system replaces your stock internals, providing a level of control and responsiveness that transforms your riding experience, whether you're cruising or pushing the limits.
The Ohlins NIX 22 Fork Cartridge Kit is an essential upgrade for any Softail Fat rider serious about suspension performance. Achieving the full benefits of this kit requires careful installation and setup. While the adjusters are external for ease of use, professional installation is highly recommended to ensure proper function and to dial in the settings perfectly for your riding style and conditions.
Does this NIX 22 kit fit my 2017 or earlier Softail Fat model?
No, this Ohlins NIX 22 fork cartridge kit is specifically designed for 2018-2022 Harley-Davidson Softail Fat models. Earlier Softail models feature a different fork design and require a different cartridge kit.
Can I adjust the damping settings without specialized tools?
Yes, the external compression, rebound, and preload adjusters allow for easy tuning. You can typically make adjustments by hand or with basic tools, enabling quick setup changes on the bike.
What is the total weight of the cartridge kit?
The Ohlins NIX 22 cartridge kit weighs 9.4 lb. This replaces the internal components of your stock forks, and the overall weight change compared to your original setup should be considered.
