Product information "Touratech Suspension Lowering -50mm for BMW F800GS Adventure from 2014 Type: Plug & Travel for ESA"

This Plug & Travel shock absorber for BMW ESA is perfect for reducing the seat height (-5cm) on the BMW F800GS Adventure with ESA equipment. At the same time, your BMW F800GS Adventure remains very well suited for touring. The shock absorber is simply replaced with the BMW ESA shock absorber. The existing connectors and switches on the handlebars are used as usual. Thus, the Touratech shock absorber is integrated into the motorcycle via the original BMW control. This means you can continue to use the damping settings on the handlebars and in the BMW display. The Touratech shock absorber adjusts to your adventure. You just need to ride.


This shortened Touratech Suspension Plug & Travel shock absorber is made with the same precision components and parts that have proven themselves over thousands of travel kilometers under the toughest conditions in our shock absorbers. This means for you: Even with this shorter shock absorber, the load can be easily and quickly adjusted by hand wheel via the hydraulic preload adjustment. The uniquely solid hydraulic Touratech preload adjustment, with its large adjustment range, ensures that the balance of your motorcycle is optimally set. The heart of this suspension is a stepper motor integrated into the shock absorber, specifically adapted to the BMW ESA. This stepper motor allows the damping to be optimally adjusted from the original BMW switch on the handlebars to the desired settings of Comfort, Normal, or Sport.

Note:
For the safe stand of your BMW F800GS Adventure after lowering, we recommend the shortened side stand and/or optionally the shortened center stand. These components can be obtained from your BMW dealer.
