Its 68 mm stroke and R\u0026amp;T (road and track) type code make it equally at home on a fast trackday lap or a demanding mountain pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eABE-approved for road use in Germany, providing legal and safety peace of mind on public roads as well as the circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eR\u0026amp;T type code confirms suitability for both road and track environments — a single component that covers every riding scenario\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e68 mm stroke delivers finely graduated damping across the full range of steering inputs, reducing tankslapper risk under hard acceleration and braking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal mount installation position ensures a direct, correctly engineered fitment with no fabrication or improvisation required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied as a complete kit for a straightforward, professional installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistinctive Blackline finish integrates cleanly with the Panigale V4 R's aggressive aesthetic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePerformance and Build Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins' Blackline range applies the same internal engineering standards as the brand's motorsport catalogue, wrapped in an understated dark finish that suits the V4 R's visual character. The SD 068 uses Öhlins' proven hydraulic damping technology to absorb the high-frequency steering disturbances generated by the V4 R's formidable power delivery, keeping the front end planted and communicative when the road surface deteriorates or mid-corner drive loads build rapidly. Because the damper mounts in the original position, the steering geometry remains exactly as Ducati intended — you gain stability without introducing any compromise in feel or response.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRoad and Track Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe R\u0026amp;T designation is not a marketing label; it is a genuine classification reflecting the SD 068's calibration for varied conditions. On track, it tames the aggressive front-end behaviour that high-speed braking and powerful exits can provoke. On the road, it smooths out the small, persistent inputs from surface irregularities, reducing rider fatigue over longer distances. The ABE certification means German-registered V4 R owners can fit this damper with full legal compliance — an important consideration that makes the SD 068 stand apart from non-approved alternatives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDucati Panigale V4 R (2019–2021) — ABE approved (Germany)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eNote: the physical appearance of the damper body may differ slightly from example images, as the mounting hardware is optimised for each specific motorcycle model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAttribute\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eÖhlins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSD 068\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType code\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSteering damper R\u0026amp;T\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStroke\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e68 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMounting position\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOriginal mount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlackline\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSupplied as\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApproval\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eABE (Germany)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDucati Panigale V4 R (2019–2021)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Öhlins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53168755441930,"sku":"SD 068","price":485.12,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/SD068black_501ff96b-6024-41d4-b9b2-24c7314816b8.png?v=1780813644","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-it\/products\/ohlins-blackline-steering-damper-sd-068-ducati-panigale-v4-r","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
