Ohlins HD928 STX36 Twin Shock Absorbers for Harley-Davidson VRSC V-Rod

The Öhlins HD928 is a pair of STX36 twin rear shock absorbers purpose-built for the Harley-Davidson VRSC V-Rod platform. Part of Öhlins' renowned STX36 lineup, these shocks are engineered to deliver a significant upgrade in ride quality, handling precision, and adjustability over the factory suspension.

At the heart of the HD928 is a 36mm internal piston, monotube high-pressure nitrogen gas-charged design with an internal reservoir housed within the main shock body. This divided piston (S36DR1L) configuration allows for superior damping consistency across a wide range of riding conditions. The shocks measure 318–319mm (approximately 12.5 inches) in extended length — a direct drop-in replacement matching OEM shock length for straightforward installation.

Key Features:

• Monotube, high-pressure nitrogen gas-charged design with internal reservoir
• 36mm piston diameter for precise, consistent damping
• Adjustable rebound damping for fine-tuning to road conditions and riding style
• Adjustable preload via pin tool to accommodate varying rider weights
• Ride height / length adjustability (+10mm / -0mm range)
• Hard anodized, CNC-machined billet components for durability and precision
• Low-friction shaft and seal head design for smooth, consistent action
• Fully rebuildable and serviceable — a long-term performance investment
• Sold as a pair

Öhlins recommends servicing these shocks every 20,000–30,000 miles to maintain peak performance. The HD928 fits the Harley-Davidson VRSCA, VRSCAW, VRSCB, VRSCD, VRSCDX Night Rod Special, VRSCF V-Rod Muscle, and VRSCR Street Rod models spanning 2002–2017.
