Ohlins TTX GP Rear Shock

Alsky · 2025-02-11T11:51:13-0800

I have a 23 V2. I never track it. I use it as my daily city ride. I feel every bump and crack in the road. I’m 5’7” 180lbs. I’ve tried adjusting the shock with little difference. Will upgrading to the Ohlins make a "noticeable" difference for $1500?

what is your rider sag right now? ive found too much AND too little both give me that harsh "i can feel everything" feeling...and it does suck.
on my V4, 15mm of preload was too much, and 9mm preload was too little...

my rider sag between both only varied from 23mm to 30mm...

i'm at 11ish mm preload and 29mm rider sag, and happy as a clam!

Now this wont directly translate to your V2...for sure...but if you dont know your free and rider SAG, start there. shoot for 25-30mm front and rear RIDER, and 20mm front free sag, and 15-20mm rear free sag.

just upgrading your rear wont solve anything if its not dialed in either.

good luck,
Jag

I think Ohlins make a big difference all the time. For street and sport. Lighter wheels will make a difference too. But the thing you can try immediately is letting a few lbs. of air out of the tires. And making dang sure they aren’t over inflated.

Oh, you can also get a gel seat, and you can get those padded handlebar grips. I hate them for sport riding, but they can make a big difference.

Well set up Ohlins will be noticeable. Most likely you have too much preload (especially if you haven’t changed this) as JAG posted. Adjusting the damper won’t do anything to remedy improper preload
