With this retrofittable electronic damper DSA EVO UP, Touratech Suspension offers a highly effective and inexpensive 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 wish to completely replace their semi-active suspension elements are given the opportunity to still benefit from the advanced damper technology of the EVO range.
EPA and spring: existing original parts are used
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 electronic shock absorber of the EVO range in conjunction with the spring and electronic spring preload (EPA) of the original equipment.
“Because it’s possible to carry on using the spring and EPA, the EVO UP upgrade is particularly recommended for motorcycles with relatively low mileage,” explains Touratech Suspension Product Manager Jo Glaser. “You can set your machine up perfectly for a planned adventure trip or simply give it a significant plus in 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 benefits offered by the EVO series. To begin with, there is the new electronic valve, which processes the signals from the vehicle’s own sensors with unprecedented precision. Whether onroad, offroad or on rapidly changing road surfaces, this suspension system reacts in real time to all eventualities.
The low friction seal combines the best durability with a low breakaway torque, ensuring sensitive response in all riding situations. 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 with the convenient adjuster for compression damping, individual and reproducible suspension setups can be realised very easily.
“With Plug & Travel DSA EVO UP we offer a cost-effective way to effectively increase the performance level of the GS models with Dynamic ESA. And best of all: our customers can completely convert to Plug & Travel EVO at any time – be it 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”, Jo Glaser emphasises.
