Suspension shock tube Touratech for Suzuki V-Strom 1000 from year 2014 Highend

This Highend shock tube for the Suzuki V-Strom 1000 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 very fine-tuned damping in the compensating reservoir allows efficient, precise and riding style-adapted suspension tuning at any time for any road conditions and purpose, 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 feeling with your motorcycle.

Properties of the suspension damper tube Touratech Highend:
+ The damper tube housing is made of aluminum.
=> This keeps the weight 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 bolts are mounted in the eye of the shock absorber tube.
=> This results in a stable and backlash-free seating of the clamping bolt 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 adjustment of the highend pressure levels always separately adjustable in high speed and low speed.
=> This allows a very individual adjustment of the pressure and traction level. 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 higher load capacity and a 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.
