Suspension shock absorber tube Touratech for KTM 990 SM-R (2009-2012) model HighEnd

This highend shock tube for the KTM 990 SM-R is perfectly developed for use on the road and on the move, with frequently varying load and ride conditions. From the rear bag to the loaded luggage system and/or with passenger function, any kind of load can be compensated by the large adjustment range. You can re-establish the balance of the motorcycle easily and quickly by means of a thumbwheel via the hydraulic spring pre-tensioning. The finely adjustable damping in the compensating reservoir allows efficient, precise and riding style-adapted suspension adjustment at all times for all road conditions and purposes, no matter whether freeways, dual carriageways, country roads, small country roads, off-road sections, long-distance trips with large luggage or a fast and ambitious riding style.

You will enjoy a completely new riding sensation with your motorcycle.

The main features in a nutshell:
=> The shock tube has been configured for the KTM 990 SM-R based on our experience and is set up ready to ride.
=> The parameters are: vehicle weight / shock tube articulation / construction features / test rides.
=> The shock absorber tube named here is designed for a driver weighing up to 100kg including luggage.



Properties of the suspension shock absorber tube Touratech Highend:
+ The shock absorber tube housing is made of aluminum.
=> The weight is thus kept to a minimum.
+ All elements and components are designed for heavy-duty use with heavy touring motorcycles.
+ Special seals with low friction are mounted.
=> This results in very low wear and long service life of the shock absorber tube.
+ Steel bushings for the clamping screws are mounted in the eye of the shock absorber tube.
=> This results in a stable and backlash-free seating of the clamping screw even under the highest loads.
+ Separating piston construction. This allows the damping fluids oil and nitrogen to act separately.
=> This results in a good reaction of the damper tube.
=> This results in high and precise damping performance even at very high damping frequencies (bad roads or tracks).
=> Improved cooling of the damper tube.
=> Minimal restrictions on the mounting position of the damper tube on the motorcycle.
+ Highend hydraulic spring initial tension via an easily accessible knob.
+ Shock absorber settings have been developed according to the experiences and requirements of Touratech.
=> Based on the experiences and many kilometers of the Touratech Race-Team.
+ Damping setting of Highend pressure levels always separately adjustable in High Speed and Low Speed.
=> Thus very individual adjustment of pressure level and traction. Ideal adaptation to changing requirements.
+ Separate high-end compensating reservoir in the shock absorber group of the shock absorber tube.
=> Improved cooling of the damping during the ride.
=> Thus increased load capacity and longer service life of the shock absorber tube.
+ QR barcode on the shock tube with individual shock tube information.
=> This provides easy access to shock tube-specific information when scanning with a smartphone.
=> Information on the basic settings of the shock tube is always accessible. Reset option in case of an incorrect setting.



In case you have mounted a larger tank on your motorcycle than the original one or have made modifications to
additional luggage bags, adaptations can be made. We adapt the shock absorber tube
by means of a spring with a higher damping ratio individually to your requirements. Please use our suspension test form and send it back to us after completion.

If you have any further questions, we will be pleased to advise you personally.
