Öhlins TTX 36 RT Shock Absorber
Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa (2008-2012)

The TTX was created by Öhlins engineers to eliminate the risk for cavitation – and they’ve succeeded. With the TTX technology a positive pressure balance is created in the shock which means the risk for cavitation is eliminated.

TTX stands for Twin Tube with the X illustrating how the flow through the valves in the cylinder head is designed. Thanks to the twin tube technology the pressure typically created on top of the piston is transferred through the cylinder head and the adjusters for compression and rebound, then flows through the space between the inner and outer tube to the other side of the solid piston creating pressure balance within the shock.

The outer reservoir is only used to take care of the oil displacement from the piston rod and heat expansion, which is why it can be fairly small in design. Inside the reservoir there is a dividing piston between the oil and the nitrogen gas.
