DescriptionThe whole story

Born on the circuits of the British Superbike Championship and battle-tested at the Isle of Man TT, the K-Tech DDS Pro rear shock absorber brings proven race pedigree directly to your Ducati Panigale V2 955. Precision-engineered CNC-machined components and K-Tech's signature DDS architecture give this unit a look and feel that match its extraordinary capability — a fitting upgrade for a motorcycle that deserves nothing less.

Key Features

  • Five-way adjustability delivers a breadth of setup options unmatched by OEM or budget aftermarket units
  • 32-click compression and 32-click rebound adjustment for meticulous damping control across any road or track surface
  • 16-click ByPass Valve (BPV) setting refines low-shaft-speed damping, dramatically improving tyre feedback and mid-corner traction
  • Hydraulic preload adjustment allows fast, tool-free spring load changes between sessions or riding conditions
  • Ride height adjustment lets you dial in chassis geometry to suit your preferred setup or track demands
  • DDS (Dual Damping System) architecture includes potentiometer mounting points for data-logging integration
  • Wide spring rate selection across the 55–155 series accommodates a broad range of rider weights and riding styles

Race Heritage, Road Refinement

K-Tech Suspension has spent decades refining DDS technology at the sharpest end of motorcycle racing. Every click-stop and valve characteristic on the DDS Pro has been shaped by feedback from elite riders competing in world-class championships. That accumulated knowledge is embedded in every unit that leaves the factory — which is why professional race teams and discerning road riders choose K-Tech when standard suspension simply is not enough.

The CNC-machined aluminium body gives the DDS Pro the structural rigidity to handle repeated high-load cycles without flex or fade, while the anodised finish ensures long-term resistance to corrosion and the kind of presentable appearance that looks purposeful beneath the Panigale's bodywork. The 35 mm body diameter and 12 mm shaft are sized for optimal stiffness-to-weight balance, and the 65 mm stroke is precisely matched to the V2 955's rear linkage geometry.

Precision Setup Out of the Box

K-Tech provides recommended baseline settings calibrated for the Panigale V2 955, so you can bolt the unit in and immediately feel the difference without spending hours searching for a starting point. From there, the five independent adjustment axes give you the granularity to keep chasing tenths on track or to fine-tune compliance for long road days — whichever matters more on any given morning.
