DescriptionThe whole story▼

The Harley Davidson SPORTSTER XL1200X FORTY-EIGHT in its 2010–2018 form takes Öhlins part number HD 751. Rear grip is decided by how the damper controls load transfer, not by the tyre alone.

Damping and Adjustment

The damper moves 59 mm from full extension to full compression. The 36 mm piston is the same size Öhlins uses across this platform, and the shim stack is what makes it model-specific. Spring part number 00281-72 or 66419-019 is a separate catalogue item, so a rate change is inexpensive. Length is 296 mm and is not adjustable on this number. The adjuster range is usable end to end rather than only around the middle. Öhlins publishes a baseline setting for each part number, which is the sensible starting point.

Construction and Material Quality

Two units carrying the same part number behave the same way out of the box, which is the whole point of testing each one. Öhlins sets a baseline for each part number on the machine it was developed on, so it works before anything is adjusted. Materials read unremarkably on paper — aluminium, steel, nitrogen — and the difference lies in how precisely they are made.

About the STX 36 Blackline Range

On a retro or a classic twin the black finish often looks more period-correct than gold, and nothing about the damping changes. The STX 36 in Blackline finish: black anodised body, black spring, 36 mm damping piston. The finish suits classic and retro machines where chrome and black dominate.

What This Means on the SPORTSTER XL1200X FORTY-EIGHT

This part number spans model years 2010 to 2018; earlier and later generations take different numbers. Cruisers carry weight low and long, with short suspension travel doing work that a sportbike would spread over twice the stroke.

Fitment and Compatibility

Part number HD 751 and the Harley Davidson SPORTSTER XL1200X FORTY-EIGHT (2010–2018) belong together; other model years take other numbers. It is model-specific rather than universal: length, stroke and valving are all set for this chassis.

Road Approval
