How It Behaves on the Road

The fitted spring is 00280-68, and Öhlins lists neighbouring rates under their own numbers. Length is 329 mm and is not adjustable on this number. Öhlins specifies 36 mm for the piston on this number. The available stroke of 92 mm sets how much wheel travel the shim stack has to control. Öhlins publishes a baseline setting for each part number, which is the sensible starting point. The adjuster range is usable end to end rather than only around the middle.

Where This Sits in the Öhlins Line-up

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. On a retro or a classic twin the black finish often looks more period-correct than gold, and nothing about the damping changes.

Materials and Manufacture

Machining, anodising, assembly and testing all happen in the same building rather than across a supply chain. The damper body is hard-anodised aluminium, which resists both corrosion and the thermal cycling a rear shock lives with. Spring and damper are separate part numbers, so a rate change does not mean a new unit.

The Ultra Glide Classic FLHTCU in Particular

The 2014–2016 generation kept the same chassis dimensions throughout, so one Öhlins number serves the whole run. Retro and heritage machines usually inherit their suspension specification from cost targets rather than from chassis development.

Fitment and Compatibility

What follows applies to the Harley Davidson Ultra Glide Classic FLHTCU built 2014–2016, which is the machine HD 773 is listed for. Nothing about it is generic — the mounting dimensions alone rule out a different model.
