The Ohlins KA048 STX 46 Supersport rear shock is designed for the Kawasaki ZXR 750, bringing race-derived damping control to a road and track package. Built around a gas-pressurised design, it is intended to deliver consistent behaviour during demanding riding. Adjustment functions allow you to tune chassis response to suit tyres, pace and conditions.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Part of the STX 46 Supersport family, this unit is aimed at riders wanting a more controlled and tuneable rear end than a standard shock. It is built for repeatable damping and clear feedback when you change settings.

Who this shock is for

  • ZXR 750 owners riding spirited road, track days, or supersport-style use
  • Riders chasing improved rear traction and stability under braking and acceleration
  • Those who want external adjustments rather than a fixed, non-serviceable unit

Shock design & features

  • STX 46 Supersport architecture
  • Gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated design for consistent damping performance
  • Rear mono fitment

Tuning controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment
  • Compression damping adjustment
  • Spring preload adjustment

Before you install

Confirm fitment for your exact Kawasaki ZXR 750 model and year, and check that the supplied spring (01096-13) matches your load and riding use. After installation, re-check sag and adjustment positions after the first ride to ensure the shock is working through its range cleanly.

Serviceability/lifecycle

This Ohlins rear shock is a rebuildable unit intended to be serviced as part of normal maintenance, particularly if used regularly on track. Routine servicing helps maintain damping consistency and keeps adjustments effective over time.
