With the retrofittable DSA EVO UP electronic shock absorber, Touratech Suspension offers a highly effective and affordable upgrade for the rear shock absorber of the BMW R 1200/1250 GS with Dynamic ESA.
Touratech Suspension has once again set standards with the introduction of the new generation of semi-active suspension elements in the Plug & Travel DSA EVO range. Responsiveness, durability and performance in extreme situations take the GS suspension system to a whole new level.
Now riders of BMW GS models with Dynamic ESA who do not yet want to completely replace their semi-active suspension elements have the opportunity to still benefit from the advanced damper technology of the EVO range.
EPA and spring: use of existing original parts
The Touratech Suspension EVO UP upgrade for the rear shock absorber of the BMW R 1200 GS / R 1250 GS allows the use of the brand new EVO series electronic shock absorber in combination with the spring and electronic spring preload (EPA) of the original equipment.
"Because it is possible to continue using the spring and EPA, the EVO UP upgrade is particularly recommended for motorcycles with relatively low mileage," explains Jo Glaser, product manager of Touratech Suspension. "You can tune your bike perfectly for a planned adventure trip or simply give it a significantly higher suspension quality."
Semi-active damping adjustment at the highest level
GS riders who opt for the Touratech Suspension Plug & Travel DSA EVO UP benefit from the numerous advantages offered by the EVO series. First, there is the new electronic valve, which processes signals from the vehicle's sensors with unprecedented precision. Whether driving on road, off road or on fast-changing road surfaces, this suspension system responds in real time to all eventualities.
The low-friction seal combines the best durability with low initial torque, providing sensitive response in all driving conditions. The new Hyper Flow damper piston design, which suppresses oil foam formation even at very high damper speeds, ensures consistent performance even under the most extreme loads. And the convenient adjustable compression damping knob makes it easy to achieve individual and reproducible suspension configurations.
"With Plug & Travel DSA EVO UP, we offer a cost-effective way to effectively increase the performance level of GS models with Dynamic ESA. And best of all: our customers can switch completely to Plug & Travel EVO at any time, whether it is by rounding off the rear EVO shock with the electronic spring preload and a high-quality spring from the Touratech Suspension range, or by fitting a complete semi-active Plug & Travel DSA EVO suspension element to the Telelever," emphasizes Jo Glaser.
