The Ohlins KA151 STX 36 Twin shock set is a rear twin-shock solution for the Kawasaki ZRX 1100. Built around Ohlins’ STX design approach, it focuses on predictable damping behaviour and clear chassis feedback. It is intended for riders who want more control over ride quality and response than a basic, non-adjustable setup.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins suspension is developed with a strong emphasis on damping control, consistency and serviceability. This twin-shock arrangement is designed to support stable handling and confidence across changing road conditions.

Who this shock is for

  • Kawasaki ZRX 1100 riders upgrading worn or underperforming rear suspension
  • Owners who want adjustable damping to better match load, tyres and riding style
  • Street-focused riders who value support and composure in real-world conditions

Shock design & features

This is an STX 36 Twin rear shock configuration using a gas-pressurised design with oil and gas separated for consistent damping. The architecture is intended to maintain damping stability as conditions change and to support sustained performance over longer rides.

Tuning controls

The KA151 provides damping adjustment for both rebound and compression, allowing you to refine response to bumps, braking load transfer and corner exit behaviour. It also includes ride height adjustment to help set chassis attitude and steering balance.

Before you install

  • Confirm compatibility with Kawasaki ZRX 1100 and your specific model year and mounting hardware
  • Plan to set sag and damping after installation to suit your weight and typical load
  • If replacing older components, inspect linkage/mounting points and fasteners during fitment

Serviceability/lifecycle

Ohlins shocks are designed to be serviced and reconditioned, supporting long-term ownership. Periodic servicing helps maintain damping consistency and keeps adjustment ranges meaningful as the unit accumulates use.
