OEM Ohlins fork on my S4Rs Testastretta carries the number FG 338, which I believe signifies a .85 spring.

(Based on info from this post on ducati.ms)

OEM Ohlins shock has an 01092-36/105 L236 spring, which I believe signifies a 10.5.

I've never quite got my head around the units, sorry, but am guessing kg/mm applies to both.  ;D

Here is a link with a lot of shock measurements.



It doesn't talk about spring rates, and doesn't show what any of the ends look like, but on BMW forums it looks like they do spend some time talking to buyers to get a good initial setup.

It is what it is, and I haven't sprung for anything yet, so YMMV.
