X-TREME Shock Absorber + HPA KTM 790 Adventure R 2019-2025, TracTive

The TracTive X-TREME is a high-quality, fully adjustable shock absorber with an external reservoir, hydraulic preload adjuster (HPA), and PDSII bottom-out protection.

The damping setup has been specially developed for the KTM 790 Adventure R. Rebound and compression damping can be adjusted independently of each other. The compression stage also features separate high- and low-speed adjustment.

The external reservoir provides a larger oil volume and improved heat dissipation. This keeps the damping performance as consistent as possible even under heavy loads, such as during longer off-road stages.

The handwheel for the hydraulic preload adjuster allows the shock absorber to be quickly adjusted for different load conditions, without the need for tools.

The shock absorber is available as an X-TREME model without hydraulic preload adjustment.

Adjustment Options

• Rebound: approx. 18 clicks
• Low-speed compression: damping adjustment for slow suspension movements, such as when accelerating or over long undulations
• High-speed compression: damping adjustment for fast suspension movements, such as potholes or hard terrain edges
• Spring preload: hydraulic via handwheel, more than 60 clicks

Technical Details

• 46 mm piston diameter
• 16 mm piston rod made of hardened 42CrMo steel
• Aluminum housing
• External, fixed reservoir
• PDSII bottom-out protection
• Hydraulic Preload Adjuster (HPA)
• Fully serviceable and individually tunable

PDSII Bottom-out Protection

The PDSII system works with an additional piston that generates progressive damping towards the end of the suspension travel. This reduces harsh bottoming out during heavy impacts or jumps.

Available Heights

The shock absorber is available in three different versions:

• Standard height
• 30 mm lowering
• 20 mm raising

For the lowered version, an adjustment of the side and center stand may be necessary.

We recommend matching the suspension height at the front and rear wheels. Ideally, the shock absorber should be combined with a correspondingly adapted fork cartridge.

Individual Setup

We will tune the shock absorber to your rider weight and intended use before delivery.

For this, we only need your rider weight including motorcycle gear and brief information about your primary use (road, touring, off-road, etc.).

You can simply send us this information via email or reply directly to the order confirmation.

The shock absorber comes standard with a 95 N/mm spring. Depending on rider weight and intended use, softer or harder springs are also available.
