Product description

These shock absorbers are made from durable steel and feature a twin-tube construction that provides consistent damping. The simple linear spring rate supports constant spring performance and contributes to rear wheel control. The manually adjustable spring preload allows for individual adjustment to different driving conditions and driver preferences.

The combination of black surface and chrome-plated details ensures an attractive look that fits harmoniously into the design of the Yamaha RD 400. The internal reservoir arrangement contributes to the compact design and protects the damper components from external influences.

The set includes two shock absorbers, which together ensure even suspension of the rear wheel. The standard height adjustment allows for easy installation without additional adjustments to the vehicle frame.

Function and use

Hydraulic damping reduces shock and vibration caused when driving on uneven roads. This increases driving stability and improves driving comfort. The adjustable spring preload allows the driving behavior to be tailored to different loads or driving styles.

The YSS High Performance Series shock absorber is a suitable choice for Yamaha RD 400 owners looking for reliable and adjustable rear suspension.
