Touratech Suspension Shock Absorber for BMW F700GS from 2013 Type Level 1

Product information "Touratech Suspension Shock Absorber for BMW F700GS from 2013 Type Level 1"

This shock absorber is the right choice for the BMW F700GS during normal touring operations. The shock absorber type Level 1 offers a wide adjustment range and high reserves for the demands of motorcycle travel. The separation piston design and finely adjustable damping allow for a more precise adjustment and balance than is possible with the series components of motorcycle manufacturers. The spring preload can be adjusted for load adaptation to the large travel luggage using an adjustment tool. The damping adjustment of this Level 1 shock absorber allows for the necessary influence on the rebound and compression stages to implement your individual requirements for riding comfort at the shock absorber.


Important points at a glance:
=> The shock absorber is configured and ready to ride based on our experiences for the BMW F700GS.
=> Parameters include: vehicle weight / linkage of the shock absorber / structural conditions / test rides.
=> The shock absorber mentioned here is designed for a rider weight of up to 100kg including travel luggage.

Features of the Touratech Suspension Level 1 shock absorber:
=> The shock absorber housing is made of aluminum.
*** This results in minimal weight.
=> Special, low-friction seals are installed.
*** This results in very low wear and a long lifespan of the shock absorber.
=> Stable stainless steel bushings for the mounting screws are installed in the shock absorber eye.
*** This ensures a stable, play-free fit of the mounting screw even under the highest loads.
=> All components and parts are designed for intensive use with heavy touring motorcycles.
=> The damping settings were developed based on the experiences and requirements of Touratech.
*** The basis is many travel kilometers and the experiences from the deployments of the Touratech Race Team.
=> Separation piston design. This allows the damping fluids oil and nitrogen to act separately.
*** Finer response of the shock absorber.
*** High, precise damping performance even at very high damping frequencies (bad roads, tracks).
*** Better cooling of the shock absorber.
*** Minimal restrictions on the installation position of the shock absorber in the motorcycle.
=> QR code on the shock absorber with individual shock absorber information.
*** This allows easy retrieval of shock-specific information by scanning with a smartphone.
*** Always accessible information on the basic setting of the shock absorber. Reset possible in case of incorrect settings.



If you have installed a larger tank than the original tank on your motorcycle or made modifications for additional
luggage accommodation on your motorcycle, adjustments are possible. The shock absorber will then be individually adjusted to your needs by us
with a spring of higher spring rate. Please use our suspension check form and send us the completed form.
