DescriptionThe whole story

Engineered from the ground up for the BMW S1000RR K46, the Öhlins TTX GP shock absorber BM 468 delivers race-derived suspension control with the all-day confidence that lets you push harder for longer. Whether you are threading through a demanding track day or logging serious road miles, the TTX GP's progressive damping character keeps the rear end planted and communicative without ever feeling harsh or fatiguing.

Key Features

  • Gas-pressure damper with a fixed external reservoir for consistent, fade-free performance across extended sessions
  • Full adjustment of both rebound and compression damping so you can dial the rear end to suit your riding style, circuit surface or road conditions
  • Integrated hydraulic spring preload adjuster for quick, precise load changes — no spanners required
  • 36 mm piston diameter for exceptional durability and a broad, usable damping range
  • 62 mm stroke and a 353 mm length (+6 / -0 mm) engineered to match the S1000RR K46 geometry exactly
  • Spring rate of 85 N/mm chosen to complement the chassis balance of the 2015–2018 S1000RR

Built for the Long Haul

Öhlins' TTX (Twin Tube Cross) technology separates compression and rebound circuits into dedicated flow paths, keeping oil temperature stable and damping forces consistent lap after lap. The fixed external reservoir increases oil volume without lengthening the main body, preserving the stock mounting geometry while significantly raising the thermal ceiling. The result is a shock that feels as composed on lap twenty as it did on lap one — a genuine advantage when fatigue sets in and precise suspension feedback matters most.

Fitment and Compatibility
