DescriptionThe whole story▼
The Öhlins TTX GP shock absorber HO 568 is the definitive rear suspension upgrade for the Honda CBR1000RR-R and SP, engineered from the ground up to deliver the race-proven control and heritage that has made Öhlins the benchmark on circuits worldwide. Every detail — from the twin-tube gas-pressure damper to the fixed external piggy-back reservoir — reflects decades of Grand Prix development translated into a bolt-on unit for one of Honda's most capable superbikes.
Key Features
- Twin-tube TTX gas-pressure damper with fixed external piggy-back reservoir for consistent, fade-free damping under sustained hard use
- Independent rebound and compression damping adjustment for precise, repeatable chassis tuning
- Integrated hydraulic spring preload adjuster allows on-the-fly setup changes without specialist tools
- 36 mm piston diameter delivers exceptional durability and outstanding force linearity across the full stroke
- Developed specifically for the Honda CBR1000RR-R and SP (2020–2026) — direct OEM fitment, no modification required
- Installation guide included; professional fitting by an authorised Öhlins Service Centre is recommended for optimal results
Design, Finish and Heritage
Öhlins' iconic gold finish is more than an aesthetic signature — it is the visual shorthand for half a century of motorsport dominance. The TTX GP unit carries that lineage proudly: the precision-machined aluminium body, the cleanly routed piggy-back reservoir and the tight, purposeful package speak to an engineering culture where form follows function without compromise. Fitted to the CBR1000RR-R, this shock completes the visual narrative of a machine already designed with track intent, while signalling to those who know exactly what lies beneath the bodywork.
Performance and Adjustability
The TTX (Twin Tube X-over) architecture separates compression and rebound circuits more effectively than conventional monotube designs, keeping the damping fluid aerated-free and the response consistent lap after lap. The 36 mm piston — larger than many OEM units — generates the damping force needed to manage the CBR1000RR-R's aggressive power delivery without sacrificing feel. Both rebound and compression settings are accessible via external adjusters, making mid-session changes straightforward, while the hydraulic spring preload adjuster eliminates the guesswork and skinned knuckles associated with C-spanner setups.
Fitment and Compatibility
The Öhlins HO 568 is designed exclusively for the following Honda models:
- Honda CBR1000RR-R (2020–2026) — type-approved for road use in Germany (ABE)
- Honda CBR1000RR-R SP (2020–2026) — motorsport product, not approved for road use in Germany; no parts certificate (Teilegutachten) available. Important: fitting this unit disables the motorcycle's electronic suspension control system
Fitting and Setup Service
Öhlins recommends that its suspension is fitted by an authorised service centre. We are one, and we do the work here: installation, servicing and a proper setup. Ask us and we will include it with the order.
