This shock absorber has been specially configured for the Telelever front wheel suspension on the BMW R1200GS ADVENTURE. The strengths of the Telelever system* are reinforced by the fine response characteristics of the Touratech shock absorber. The large adjustment range has enabled us to modify the front of the bike to meet even the extreme requirements of long-distance touring with lengthy off-road stretches and heavy loading. The floating piston design and fine damping adjustment enable a more suitable suspension setup and better balance than is possible with the bike manufacturer's standard components. To adjust your bike's balance – depending on the type of rear shock absorber that is fitted – the preload can be adjusted using the adjustment tool. The damping setting on this Level1 shock allows the necessary degree of control over the bump and rebound to adjust the shock absorber to suit your individual ride comfort requirements.


Facts at a glance:
=> This shock absorber is configured and adjusted ready for use based on our experience with the front of the BMW R1200GS Adventure.
=> The parameters are: vehicle weight / shock absorber pivot point / design constraints / test rides.
=> This shock absorber is designed for nearly all possible loading conditions on the front of the bike.
=> A higher spring rate only makes sense if there is significantly greater weight on the front (modifications/conversions).
=> As with all suspension solutions, the rear and front of the motorbike should be modified together.
=> In this case, the possible components for the rear of the BMW R1200GS Adventure are:
=> Touratech Suspension *rear* shock absorber for BMW R1200GS ADV from 2006 type *Level1* 01-044-5862-0
=> Touratech Suspension *rear* shock absorber for BMW R1200GS ADV >2006 type *High End* 01-044-5867-0
=> Touratech Suspension *rear* shock absorber for BMW R1200GS ADV >2006 type *Extreme* 01-044-5872-0
=> If only one component is changed, optimal handling will not be achieved.



The Level1 shock absorber configured here with its adjustment capabilities is very well suited to this type of motorcycle. Essentially the front suspension only needs to be adjusted once for the suspension setup as a whole.
The interplay of the shock absorber and the BMW Telelever means that no further adjustments for a full/empty tank or tank bag are necessary while riding.

Characteristics of the Touratech Suspension Level1 shock absorber:
=> The shock absorber body is made of aluminium.
*** This keeps its weight to a minimum.
=> Special low-friction seals are fitted.
*** As a result, there is very little wear and the shock absorber has a long service life.
=> Strong stainless steel bushings for the securing bolts are fitted to the spring eye.
*** They make sure the securing bolt is seated firmly with no play even under maximum loads.
=> All assemblies and components are designed for intense use on heavy touring motorcycles.
=> The damper settings were developed in line with Touratech's experience and requirements.
*** They are based on many miles travelled and experiences gained from use by the Touratech Race Team.
+ Floating piston design. The floating piston separates the damping fluids – oil and nitrogen – allowing them to work separately.
*** Gives a finer shock absorber response.
*** Precise, high-performance damping even with very high damping frequency (bad roads, dirt tracks).
*** Shock absorber cools better.
*** Minimal restrictions for the shock absorber's fitting position on the motorbike.
=> This shock absorber can even be fitted in the small installation space on the front end of the BMW R1200GS ADVENTURE.
=> QR barcode on the shock absorber contains individual shock absorber data.
*** Simply scan with a smartphone to access the specific information for the shock absorber.
*** Information on the shock absorber's factory settings is always available. Can be reset if incorrectly adjusted.



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.
