Stage6 R/T Shock Absorber Piaggio Zip – Limited Edition
Stunning Limited Edition of the high-end racing shock absorber for Piaggio Zip SP1/SP2 and Vespa by Stage6 R/T. Comes with H/L valve for high-speed and low-speed compression adjustment.
This high-tech suspension unit was further refined and improved in collaboration with top European race riders. The shock can be precisely tuned to suit the rider’s individual style and preferences, delivering a responsive setup that maintains optimal traction even under extreme conditions.
Limited Edition Upgrade for Stage6 R/T Upside Down shock
The Limited Edition shock absorbers come equipped with an exclusive H/L compression valve. This allows you to adjust low-speed damping for everyday riding and high-speed damping for quick, sharp bumps or heavy braking – each independently. By combining both damping types, the rider can perfectly adapt the suspension to various riding conditions.
-
Outer screw adjusts high-speed compression
-
Inner screw adjusts low-speed compression
Bonus: We also offer the H/L valve as a spare part so you can upgrade your old Stage6 R/T shock absorber.
The shock absorber also got a visual upgrade. For this exclusive piece, we went with a cool all-black and orange color combo – a real eye-catcher!
Stage6 R/T Shock Features 335mm
The Stage6 R/T shock, here as a Limited Edition, is a hydraulic gas-pressure shock with external reservoir – the type typically used in high-end tuning / racing. To adapt the suspension to riding style, application, and track conditions, the shock offers the following settings:
-
Preload (spring base)
-
Compression (H/L valve)
-
Rebound (black dial)
These adjustments allow the shock to be precisely tuned to the rider’s weight and offer fine control over both compression (inward stroke) and rebound (outward stroke).
Stage6 R/T High-End Racing Shock – Tips & Notes
For even more tuning options, we offer springs in various stiffness levels as spare parts.
Don’t forget to order a shock silentblock (OE-PIA216209) to ensure the best possible performance.

How do I find the right shock absorber?
In general, all shock absorbers for 50cc scooters are very similar and have a 20mm wide mount at the bottom and an “eye” with a diameter of 10mm at the top. Scooters with Piaggio engines have a 34mm wide mount at the bottom and a grub screw at the top. Of course, there are also exceptions.
Please check the dimensions on your vehicle. The length of the shock absorber can be adjusted by 2-3cm to adapt the seat height or the handling to your personal preference. A longer shock absorber allows for a slightly sportier ride.
