DescriptionThe whole story▼

Fitted to the Harley Davidson SPORTSTER XL1200X FORTY-EIGHT (2010–2020), the Öhlins HD 752 replaces the standard unit outright. What a rider feels as a lack of rear grip is usually a damper that has stopped keeping up.

  • Built to 296 +10/-0 mm installed length

Fitted to the SPORTSTER XL1200X FORTY-EIGHT

Short travel and substantial mass are a hard combination: there is little room to absorb anything, so damping quality matters more. Öhlins covers the 11-year production run of this generation with a single part number, which means the mounting and the linkage stayed unchanged across it.

The STX 36 Blackline in Detail

The finish suits classic and retro machines where chrome and black dominate. Blackline in the STX 36 range means black anodising and a black spring, with the 36 mm damping hardware unchanged. The STX 36 in Blackline finish: black anodised body, black spring, 36 mm damping piston.

How It Behaves on the Road

The spring is wound to 19 N/mm, and alternative rates are catalogue items. Spring 00281-72 or 66419-019 is what ships with the damper; harder and softer rates are available. The 36 mm piston is the same size Öhlins uses across this platform, and the shim stack is what makes it model-specific. 59 mm is the stroke Öhlins specifies against the SPORTSTER XL1200X FORTY-EIGHT's ratio. The adjuster range is usable end to end rather than only around the middle. Öhlins publishes a baseline setting for each part number, which is the sensible starting point.

Construction and Material Quality

Production has stayed in Sweden since the company was founded in 1976. Shafts are hardened and surface-treated so the seal has a consistent surface to run against. Gas pressure is set at the factory and holds through normal service intervals.
