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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe STX 36 Blackline in Detail\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow It Behaves on the Road\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fitment stated here is the Harley Davidson SPORTSTER XL1200X FORTY-EIGHT in its 2010–2020 form, under Öhlins part number HD 752. Nothing about it is generic — the mounting dimensions alone rule out a different model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoad approval: a German ABE covers this part on the Harley Davidson SPORTSTER XL1200X FORTY-EIGHT.
