Öhlins STX Pro Blackline rear shocks for Harley-Davidson Touring, 2014-2024. Öhlins' current-generation Touring rear suspension, replacing the long-running HD 044 with refined hardware, simpler installation, and the same fully-adjustable damping that's defined the series.

Sold as a complete pair (left and right rear shocks).

The STX Pro Blackline retains the proven STX 36 platform with the hose-mounted external reservoir for consistent damping under sustained load — now with metal compression adjuster knobs, half-inch ID bushings (no sleeves required), and Öhlins-branded anodized aluminum reservoir bracket arms. Spring rate is preset for a 250-575 lb combined rider + passenger + cargo weight range.

Features

• High-pressure nitrogen-charged monotube design with 36mm piston
• External hose-mounted reservoir with metal compression adjuster knob
• Adjustable rebound damping, compression damping, and shock length
• Pin-tool spring preload adjustment
• Half-inch ID bushings for direct fitment — no sleeves required
• Anodized aluminum reservoir bracket arms (included)
• Fixed spring rate for a 250-575 lb combined loaded weight range
• Hard-anodized, CNC-machined components for corrosion resistance and consistent damping
• Fully serviceable and rebuildable — Öhlins services these in-house, and they are designed to be rebuilt rather than replaced over their service life.

What's Included

• Two (2) Öhlins STX Pro Blackline shock absorbers
• Pre-installed springs matched to the 250-575 lb weight range
• Anodized aluminum reservoir bracket arms

Installation Notes

• Direct bolt-on replacement for the OEM rear shocks. No frame modifications or sleeves required (half-inch ID bushings).
• Initial sag setting is recommended after install.
• Reservoir brackets mount to the saddlebag support hardware — confirm clearance for aftermarket bags or trunk setups before installation.
