TracTive Suspension - "unmatched precision and handling"
Last month we featured the "TracTive Story". From being founded in 2010 by six former WP Suspension engineers and executives to a team of 45 in 2022, offering aftermarket suspension technology (and better!) that is available through its private label contracts and as own-brand aftermarket suspension products.
This month, we have details of more of the new products that the company introduced at EICMA in November 2021 …
X-CHANGE PRO PDS rear shock - Africa Twin Adventure Sports

Honda installed the electronic EERA suspension into the Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports "while the ride height functionality works fine, the standard spring and damping is mostly way too soft for the average adventure rider, and the electronic damping adjustment range is barely noticeable. The TracTive X-CHANGE solution solves this - it is supplied with the right spring for the weight of rider and provides the perfect damping for every application by manual adjustment. At the same time, the original ride height system is retained, and no errors will occur with the EERA system. It has separate low and high-speed compression adjusters for optimum tuning for different tracks and has an anti-bottoming PDSII system; available in various ride heights".
eX-CHANGE PRO rear shock - BMW R 1250 GS/R 1250 GSA
"With this product, the original ESA suspension system is brought to a new level. It allows use of the original auto-levelling spring preload system - a new damper is added with improved damping performance due to the patented TracTive DDA valve. Adventure riders will appreciate the higher thermal stability due to the larger oil capacity (larger piston and reservoir). The extra manual adjusters allow for optimal handling for different tracks. Because the shock functions with the original connectors and motorbike controls, there is no conflict with the original systems. Available in lowered and long travel versions".
eX-CELLENT set - S 1000 RR, S 1000 XR, S 1000 R

TracTive says it is the only suspension company worldwide that supplies full Plug & Play electronic systems for these models. The original BMW electronic suspension is manufactured by VRM Marzocchi and contains the patented TracTive DDA (Dynamic Damping Adjustment) technology. The rear shock absorber and the front cartridges fit to the original connectors and, besides full dynamic ESA compatibility, offer tuning features like spring choice, spring preload and additional manual damping adjustments.
