The Touratech Suspension DDA / Plug & Travel suspension set is an absolutely top class suspension system for your BMW R1200GS(LC)/R1250GS equipped with the BMW DDC system. This premium suspension system is systematically designed for long-distance touring with lots of luggage, on any type of road surface and even off-road. Touratech Suspension DDA / Plug & Travel shock absorbers simply replace the BMW DDC shocks. The existing plug connectors and switches on the handlebar are retained and used as usual. As a result, the Touratech suspension system becomes an integral part of the motorcycle via the original BMW control unit. You can continue to use the various riding mode and load setting configurations on the BMW display. The Touratech suspension system that adapts itself to the adventurer inside you so all you have to do is ride!
This Touratech Suspension DDA / Plug & Travel suspension system is manufactured using the same precision components and parts that have been tried-and-tested in our shock absorbers over thousands of miles of touring, under the most intense conditions. At the heart of this suspension system is the high-performance DDA valve, developed and patented by Tractive. It allows the damping to adjust in fractions of a second to any riding situation. To withstand the rigours of long-distance touring, our shock absorbers have a larger piston diameter, which means a larger oil capacity. This enables better cooling with a high damping frequency. As a result, the shock absorber and damping are more stable and there is less stress on the seals.
What's included:
- Touratech Suspension DDA Plug & Travel front shock absorber
- Touratech Suspension DDA Plug & Travel rear shock absorber
- Ready to fit with plug connector and wiring
The basic setup fitted here is designed for riders up to 100 kg including luggage. Modifications are possible for a heavier rider (more than 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 fitting a spring with a higher spring rate.
