BMW R 1200 GS Adventure K51 2014-2018 - Ohlins TTX 36/TTX 39 Adventure (BM 149)Cavitation. Something you dont want in your shock absorber. Its devastating because basically it means the damping is lost. Small bubbles in the oil can never create the necessary damping forces. Traditional dampers working in extreme conditions sometimes suffers from low pressure on the piston backside. The TTX was created by hlins engineers to eliminate the risk for cavitation. They succeeded. With the TTX technology a positive pressure balance is

These equals to a pressure balance within the shock

Thanks to the twin tube technology the pressure usually created on top of the piston is transferred through the cylinder head and the adjusters for compression and rebound

it allows for a more precise function and stability
