DescriptionThe whole story▼

08432-85 is the Öhlins number for the Yamaha YZF R1 as sold between 2015 and 2023. Rates are measured individually rather than taken from the winding specification.

Key Features

  • Direct fitment on the Yamaha YZF R1 (2015–2023)
  • Delivered with a 8.5 spring, selected for the YZF R1

Getting the Sag Right

Eye-to-eye length is 220 mm, fixed for this application. Spring rate is 8.5 as delivered, which sets static sag for a rider of typical weight. Fill specification is 01309, which is part of the setting rather than a detail. With the correct rate fitted, the standard damping finally has a fair chance of working as intended. Sag is set by preload once the rate is right; the two are not interchangeable.

Why This Machine Needs It

Supersport chassis are stiff and short, which leaves the suspension doing almost all the compliance work. The 2015–2023 generation kept the same chassis dimensions throughout, so one Öhlins number serves the whole run.

About the Fork springs Range

Öhlins fork springs are wound, set and then individually measured; the rate on the label is the rate you get. The rate printed on the spring is the measured rate, not the nominal one. Fitting the correct rate changes ride height, static sag and how much travel is usable.

How Öhlins Builds It

Machining, anodising, assembly and testing all happen in the same building rather than across a supply chain. Coating is applied after setting so the finish does not affect the rate. Öhlins sets a baseline for each part number on the machine it was developed on, so it works before anything is adjusted.

Fitment and Compatibility

This listing covers Öhlins part number 08432-85 for the Yamaha YZF R1, 2015–2023. Because the settings are model-specific, fitting it to a related machine would mean running the wrong specification.

Road Approval

Road approval: no documented status for the Yamaha YZF R1. Get in touch before ordering if the machine is to stay road legal.

Fitting and Setup Service

Öhlins recommends that its suspension is fitted by an authorised service centre. We are one, and we do the work here: installation, servicing and a proper setup. Ask us and we will include it with the order.
