Sport shock absorber Stage6 for Minarelli and Peugeot scooters 310mm
High-quality, CNC-milled Sport Pro shock absorber from tuning experts Stage6.
This entry-level sport shock absorber is a great alternative to the more expensive R/T and R/T Replica shocks. It looks fantastic and offers a significant improvement in performance and stability. Ideal for those who want to upgrade their vehicles without sacrificing quality.
Stage6 Minarelli shock absorber - focus on performance and safety
If you enhamce the performance of your scooter (i.e. more horsepower), it makes sense to also upgrade the suspension in order to improve stability, handling, ride feel and, of course, safety and to adequately adapt to the increase in performance.
Stage6 Sport Pro shock - top look and finish
The Sport Pro strut looks really great - the CNC-machined body is matt black, with orange spring base and adjustment wheel and discreet STAGE6 logo engraving on the upper part.
Stage6 has raised the bar considerably in terms of build quality and finish in direct comparison with other shock absorbers in this segment.
Stage6 Sport Pro strut - adjustment options
The Sport Pro shock absorber offers infinitely variable spring preload adjustment to adapt the shock absorber to the rider's weight and riding style/road conditions.
With a length of 310 mm, the shock absorber fits many scooter models, e.g. Yamaha Aerox, Yamaha Jog, Malaguti F12 / F15, Aprilia SR, Peugeot Kisbee, Streetzone. Especially on models with short shock absorbers, the shock absorber can also be used as a riser.
Note: Please check the mounting distance of the original shock absorber. It is possible that a longer shock absorber may require the use of a side stand!
Technical features Stage6 Sport Pro shock absorber 310mm:
- Length: 310 mm

Stage6 Sport Pro
The Sport Pro series from Stage6 consists of various CVT components. The variator, clutch, V-belt and complete kit are designed for sport and racing setups.
Stage6 has revised shapes and materials to improve the performance of the CVT compared to the original and to adapt it to the performance increase after installing a sport cylinder.
Shock absorber
Basic functionality
Whether motocross, scooter, moped or motorcycle, shock absorbers have a very simple and basic function: they absorb shocks and vibrations to make riding comfortable and safe. Without shock absorbers, you wouldn't be able to reach very high speeds because the wheels wouldn't really stay on the ground.
Since shock absorbers provide the connection to the ground and are therefore one of the main safety elements of a vehicle, they need to be maintained regularly and be fully operational at all times.
What are the symptoms of a defective shock absorber?
A shock absorber is supposed to absorb shocks, but not simply act like a spring, otherwise it would act like a catapult.
If the shock absorber comes up too fast after compression, jams, squeaks or smears oil (oil leak), it must be repaired or replaced.
For motocross machines with high-end shock absorbers that are very expensive, there are repair kits for shock absorbers. However, you will need some technical know-how and special tools to do these repairs.
For scooters and 50cc motor cycles, it's often easier to buy inexpensive new shock absor bers to do a complete replacement like a car.
Simple, adjustable, Racing
Gas pressure or hydraulic, simple shock or complex system - there are many different types of shock absorbers.
On the one hand, spring travel is important, which allows for more or less intensive use, and there are also different options for adjusting the shock depending on the model.
There are simple models like most original shock absorbers on scooters. Shock absorbers can also have different adjustment options that allow the handling to be adapted to the rider, use and conditions. These include shocks with adjustable spring preload, high-low shocks with adjustable compression for low and high speeds, and shocks with adjustable rebound like the ones on motocross bikes.
Racing shock absorbers are the most technically advanced models, they have all the above adjustment options, are made of particularly high-quality materials and often have a special finish (eg, the popular "Kashima coating").
