My new bike came with an Ohlins shock.  I'm trying to determine what shock I actually have and also to locate a manual.  On the top of the shock body is stamped "TT893" but I can't seem to find any info on the Ohlins web site.  Anyone have any info to help me out?  Thanks.

I should mention the bike is a 2012 GasGas ec300; US model.

there is no TT for Ohlins (at least as far as i know).
GasGas shocks will have GGxxxx (where x is a digit)

If you don't find a GG number it is very likely that this is an individually shock build from different components.
the 893 might point to a 250 GasGas shock of 2008

Thanks for the reply.  After looking at it again, there is a "GG" stamped as well as "TT893".  On the opposite side of the body "131604" is stamped.  I may try calling Ohlins USA next week and see if a manual is available.

are there any numbers after the GG ?
if so, provide them
the 131604 is just a production number and doesn't help in this case

Yes, it looks like this:  GG TT893.  The shock does not have high speed adjustment.  The compression and rebound are adjusted with a 3mm allen wrench.  If the bike wasn't loaded in the van I would take a photo. thanks.

No, that's not it.  No high speed adjustment.

in this case it is as i already mentioned.
It's an individually built shock where there is no official data from Ohlins.
Usually a standard shock is taken (here as assumed a GasGas EC250 shock of around 2008) and then it's modified to make it fit the bike where it should go in.
