Front shock absorber DDA / Plug & Travel from Touratech Suspension for BMW R1200GS (LC) / R1250GS (2017-)

This Touratech Suspension DDA / Plug & Travel shock is a premium suspension component for your BMW R1200GS / R1250GS equipped with the BMW DDC automatic leveling system. This premium shock absorber is systematically designed for long distance travel with lots of luggage, on any type of road surface and even off-road.

It simply replaces the BMW DDC shock absorber. The existing connectors and switches on the handlebars are retained and used as usual. As a result, this shock becomes an integral part of the motorcycle through the original BMW control unit. This shock absorber can be used in conjunction with the original BMW rear shock. The Touratech suspension system that adapts to your adventure so all you have to do is ride.

This Touratech Suspension DDA / Plug & Travel shock is manufactured using the same precision components and parts that have been proven in our shocks for thousands of miles of touring, in the most intense conditions. At the heart of this shock absorber is the high performance DDA valve, developed and patented by Tractive. It allows the damping to adjust in fractions of a second to any driving situation.

To withstand the rigors of long-distance touring, our shock absorbers have a larger piston diameter, which means a larger oil capacity. This allows for better cooling with a high damping frequency. As a result, the shock and damping are more stable and there is less stress on the seals.

Important things to consider when fitting a Suspension Touratech: It is recommended to replace the front and rear shock absorbers together. This is the only way to achieve the best performance and handling possible with this premium suspension system.

Included is the Touratech Suspension DDA Plug & Travel "front" shock absorber. Ready to fit with connector and wiring.

The basic configuration installed here is designed for passengers with up to 100 kg of additional luggage. Modifications are possible for a heavier rider (over 100 kg) and / or if the bike is usually ridden with a passenger / with luggage. In this case, we individually modify the shock absorber to meet your needs by installing a spring with a higher spring rate.
