The Ohlins STX 36 is a classic monotube shock designed for Harley Sportster XL models, featuring a divided-piston design with adjustable rebound, length, and preload tuning. Precision CNC-machined components and high-pressure nitrogen gas charging deliver consistent damping and ride quality over rough roads and track use.

I put these shocks on my 2008 Sportster. Raised the back end two inches. Best decision I've made. The ride is incredible. Not only does it ride smooth, but now it dips and leans SO much better than before. Gonna do the same to my other motorcycles.<br /><br />It was incredibly easy, too.
Night and day difference compared to stock, very simple shock with big benefits . Cant beat the bang for buck either for what you get . Highly recommended
Used to run 412s and I will never not spend the money on quality suspension. Having the lighter duty option for me as a rider at 170lbs has made all of the difference riding solo or 2 up. It?s like riding on a cloud but still feels confidence inspiring in corners. Phenomenal shocks
Fits 2002 Sportster as well. rides like dream, cheaper than legends.
This is a must have for Sportster!<br />Even with this simple version the ride is now so much smoother.<br />Installation is a breeze as well.
Ride way better than factory went with the 14 inch look great ride even better
