A rear spring matched to rider and load keeps the chassis attitude where the factory intended it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInner diameter 61 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowder-coated yellow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eÖhlins part number 06310-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree length 250 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e140 mm of usable stroke\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasured spring rate 56 N\/mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight-wound, constant rate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eManufacture and Tolerance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe finish is applied after setting, which means the coating does not affect the rate. The unit is rebuildable: seals, shims and oil are catalogue items, not a reason to buy a new one. The wire is progressively wound where the application calls for it and straight where it does not.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSize and Rate\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins holds the free length at 250 mm and the inner diameter at 61 mm across this rate range, so moving up or down a rate changes nothing about the installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat This Rate Does\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is where most riders of average weight land once static sag has been set to specification. A mid rate balances support under braking against compliance over the surface, which is why it is the usual starting point. Rates here suit a solo rider of typical weight on a road-going machine. Ride quality on the road is decided by rate first and damping second.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow a Rear Spring Works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA shock absorber spring carries the whole rear of the machine through a linkage that multiplies its rate several times over — which is why the number on the spring looks so much larger than a fork rate. A rear spring is the cheapest part of the suspension and the one that decides the most. Preload adjusts sag within a rate; it does not change the rate, and no amount of it will rescue a spring that is wrong.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAny workshop with the fork or shock in front of it can answer whether this spring fits — the three figures above are all it needs. Where Öhlins lists this size against a particular unit, the listing is a starting point rather than a boundary. A spring is one of the few suspension parts that is genuinely interchangeable: same bore, same free length, and it goes in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Fitting Involves\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins part numbers are stamped on the packaging rather than the spring, so keep the label with the setup notes. Any suspension workshop can fit these; the fork does not need to leave the bike for long. Work on both legs in one session so the fork stays symmetrical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoad approval: not applicable to the spring on its own. Öhlins issues approvals against complete suspension units, not individual springs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and Setup Service\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins recommends that its suspension is fitted by an authorised service centre. We are one, and we do the work here: installation, servicing and a proper setup.
