The Bitubo VXE Rear Monoshock, part number BW043VXE91, is a rear-suspension replacement and upgrade for 2005-2012 BMW R1200GS. The configuration for this exact part is Rear monoshock for Showa ESA OEM, provided with Bitubo spring. It replaces aging factory damping with a purpose-built Bitubo component while adding the adjustment range specified for this exact part. That gives you a more useful setup window for matching the chassis to rider weight, load, and intended use instead of being locked into a one-setting stock suspension package.
