TracTive’s new X-Treme Pro Suspension Kit for the BMW F 900 GS includes fork cartridges and a fully serviceable rear shock.
The shock absorber features a PDSII system, and the cartridges include a hydraulic end stop. These systems act as a cushion to absorb high levels of incoming energy and prevent harsh bottoming, enhancing comfort and safety. The rear shock includes a high-flow 46mm piston, while the closed-cartridge kit (with high- and low-speed compression and rebound adjustability) features a big 35mm piston that facilitates high oil flow.
The shock can be ordered with or without a hydraulic preload adjuster, and the kit is also available in a custom-made Black & White Edition.
