Where This Sits in the Öhlins Line-up

Servicing is identical to the standard STX 36. On a retro or a classic twin the black finish often looks more period-correct than gold, and nothing about the damping changes. Blackline in the STX 36 range means black anodising and a black spring, with the 36 mm damping hardware unchanged.

How Öhlins Builds It

The damper body is hard-anodised aluminium, which resists both corrosion and the thermal cycling a rear shock lives with. The unit is rebuildable: seals, shims and oil are catalogue items, not a reason to buy a new one. Gas pressure is set at the factory and holds through normal service intervals.

Setting It Up for the Sportster XL 1200 T Superlow

A cruiser is often ridden two-up with luggage, which is the load case the standard suspension rarely handles well. This part number spans model years 2017 to 2022; earlier and later generations take different numbers. The 1200 cc engine sets how quickly weight transfers, and damping has to be matched to that rather than to a class average.

Damping and Adjustment

A 36 mm working face means lower oil speed for a given wheel speed, and lower oil speed means less foaming. The spring carries Öhlins number 00281-72 or 66419-019 and can be exchanged for a different rate without replacing the damper. Spring rate is 19 N/mm as delivered, which sets static sag for a rider of typical weight. The damper moves 59 mm from full extension to full compression. Preload is set separately again, and preload is what determines static sag rather than damping. The two adjusters do genuinely separate jobs, which is what makes methodical setup possible.
