Whether you are chasing lap times at a club day or running full-bore at a national championship round, the five-way adjustability and Direct Damping System technology mean the rear end works with you, not against you, from the first lap to the last.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect Damping System (DDS) technology minimises cavitation effects for consistent, fade-free damping under sustained high-load conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive-way adjustability — compression, rebound, BPV (ByPass Valve) low-speed, hydraulic spring preload, and length — gives precise setup control for any circuit or weather condition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32-click compression adjustment and 32-click rebound adjustment for exceptionally fine-grained damping calibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16-click BPV setting targets low-shaft-speed damping, improving feel and stability through slower, more complex corners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHydraulic spring preload adjustment makes on-the-spot setup changes clean and repeatable without additional tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated potentiometer mounting points support accurate data-logging and telemetry for data-driven chassis analysis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCNC-machined components throughout deliver the dimensional accuracy and structural integrity the race environment demands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRace-proven in the British Superbike Championship and at the Isle of Man TT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDDS Technology in Detail\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Direct Damping System separates low-speed and high-speed damping circuits in a way that conventional twin-tube designs cannot match. By routing oil through the bypass valve before it reaches the main compression stack, the DDS Pro controls the shock's response to small, rapid inputs — road texture, chain snatch, minor kerb strikes — without stiffening the overall ride. The result is a rear end that hooks up under acceleration and stays composed over breaking bumps at the end of long straights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePotentiometer mounting points are machined directly into the body, so a data-acquisition system can monitor real-time shock position throughout a lap. This turns subjective rider feedback into hard numbers, shortening the setup process and making the most of every on-track minute.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBuild Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery major structural element is CNC-machined from high-grade aluminium or steel billet. The 35 mm body diameter and 12 mm shaft are sized for the rigours of Superbike-class competition, resisting flex and wear even under repeated hard landings. Spring selection covers the full 55–155 series range, so the unit can be specced precisely to rider weight and riding style from the outset rather than being forced to compensate through damping adjustments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis shock absorber is designed and tested for direct fitment to the Suzuki GSX-R 1000 produced between 2017 and 2023.
