DescriptionThe whole story▼

Öhlins builds 08773-90 for the Suzuki GSX-R 600 and lists it for model years 2011–2017. Everything else in the fork assumes the spring is right.

Key Features

  • Listed by Öhlins for the Suzuki GSX-R 600 (2011–2017) and no other machine
  • Öhlins fits a 9.0 spring to this application

Getting the Sag Right

Oil level is set at 75. The unit measures 235 mm installed, which is the dimension the GSX-R 600's linkage expects. 9.0 is the rate Öhlins selected after testing on the GSX-R 600. Fill specification is 01309, which is part of the setting rather than a detail. Rate is fixed by the spring, so the setup work is preload and oil level rather than clicks. Sag is set by preload once the rate is right; the two are not interchangeable.

The Fork springs in Detail

Fitting the correct rate changes ride height, static sag and how much of the fork's travel is actually usable. Springs are sold in rate steps so a rider can move up or down without changing anything else. Öhlins winds, sets and then individually measures every spring before it is boxed.

Why This Machine Needs It

On a supersport machine, front-end feel under braking is what the rider trusts, and damping is what provides it. Öhlins covers the 7-year production run of this generation with a single part number, which means the mounting and the linkage stayed unchanged across it. The 600 cc engine sets how quickly weight transfers, and damping has to be matched to that rather than to a class average.

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. Machining, anodising, assembly and testing all happen in the same building rather than across a supply chain. Anodising is hard-coat rather than decorative, which matters on a component exposed to road salt and stone chips.

Fitment and Compatibility

This listing covers Öhlins part number 08773-90 for the Suzuki GSX-R 600, 2011–2017. Because the settings are model-specific, fitting it to a related machine would mean running the wrong specification.

Road Approval

Road approval: unclear. There is no published German approval for this part on the Suzuki GSX-R 600, and we would rather tell you that than imply one exists.

Fitting and Setup Service

We are an authorised Öhlins service centre, so the installation does not have to be your problem: we fit and set up Öhlins components in our own workshop. Ask us when you order and we will include the work.
