DescriptionThe whole story▼

This is the Öhlins DU 568 for the Ducati Panigale V4 R, model year 2026. Rear grip is decided by how the damper controls load transfer, not by the tyre alone.

Key Features

  • Adjustable rebound damping through a dedicated click adjuster on the damper body
  • Öhlins length specification: 282 mm
  • Gas-pressurised damper with a piggyback external reservoir
  • 36 mm piston diameter
  • 65 mm of travel at the damper
  • Twin-tube TTX damper layout
  • Bolts to the Ducati Panigale V4 R (2026) using the standard mounting points
  • Supplied with Öhlins spring 21040-26

Damping Performance

At 282 mm it matches the standard unit's installed length exactly. The 36 mm piston is the same size Öhlins uses across this platform, and the shim stack is what makes it model-specific. Öhlins identifies the spring as 21040-26. Damper stroke comes to 65 mm on this number. Preload is set separately again, and preload is what determines static sag rather than damping. Adjustment is by click rather than by feel, so a setting can be written down and returned to.

Construction and Material Quality

Service parts stay available for years after a part number leaves the current price list. The unit is rebuildable: seals, shims and oil are catalogue items, not a reason to buy a new one. Öhlins sets a baseline for each part number on the machine it was developed on, so it works before anything is adjusted.

About the TTX GP Range

The practical result is that the first click of adjustment feels the same as the twentieth. The external reservoir carries the gas charge and keeps oil volume high, which slows the temperature rise. Öhlins uses the same architecture in its racing programme; the TTX GP is that hardware sold over the counter.

Why This Machine Needs It

Track use raises oil temperature quickly, and a damper that fades takes confidence with it.

Fitment and Compatibility

The fitment stated here is the Ducati Panigale V4 R in its 2026 form, under Öhlins part number DU 568. Öhlins releases the same number for 2 closely related machines; this listing is the Ducati Panigale V4 R version of that fitment.

Road Approval

Road approval: ABE (Germany). The unit is covered by a German ABE for the Ducati Panigale V4 R, so no individual inspection or entry in the vehicle documents is required. The approval document ships with the product.

Fitting and Setup Service

Öhlins suspension rewards careful fitting. We recommend having the work done by an authorised Öhlins service centre — and we are one ourselves: we fit, service and set up Öhlins components in house. If you would like us to handle the installation, just ask and we will quote it with the order.
