DescriptionThe whole story▼

The Harley Davidson Sportster XL 1200 T Superlow in its 2017–2022 form takes Öhlins part number HD 757. Damping that fades turns a predictable Sportster XL 1200 T Superlow into one that has to be ridden around.

Damping and Adjustment

Öhlins quotes 42 mm of damper stroke for this fitment. Öhlins specifies 36 mm for the piston on this number. The unit measures 279 mm installed, which is the dimension the Sportster XL 1200 T Superlow's linkage expects. A 26 N/mm spring comes fitted, and it is the first thing to reconsider if the rider is heavy or light. Öhlins publishes a baseline setting for each part number, which is the sensible starting point. Preload is set separately again, and preload is what determines static sag rather than damping.

Fitted to the Sportster XL 1200 T Superlow

Short travel and substantial mass are a hard combination: there is little room to absorb anything, so damping quality matters more. A 1200 cc machine of this type sits in a specific weight band, and Öhlins picks the spring rate for that band rather than for the platform. This part number spans model years 2017 to 2022; earlier and later generations take different numbers.

Construction and Material Quality

Production has stayed in Sweden since the company was founded in 1976. Two units carrying the same part number behave the same way out of the box, which is the whole point of testing each one. Shafts are hardened and surface-treated so the seal has a consistent surface to run against.

The STX 36 Blackline in Detail

Twin-shock applications are supplied as a matched pair. The finish suits classic and retro machines where chrome and black dominate. The STX 36 in Blackline finish: black anodised body, black spring, 36 mm damping piston.

Fitment and Compatibility

The fitment stated here is the Harley Davidson Sportster XL 1200 T Superlow in its 2017–2022 form, under Öhlins part number HD 757. Öhlins lists no other machine against this number, so it is not a unit that can be adapted to a neighbouring model.

Road Approval

Road approval: ABE (Germany) for the Harley Davidson Sportster XL 1200 T Superlow. That means no TÜV appointment and no entry in the registration document — the paperwork comes in the box.
