The Ohlins STX 46 Supersport rear shock for Kawasaki ZX-10R is built around Ohlins’ track-focused damping architecture, aimed at delivering repeatable control under aggressive riding. It’s designed to give clear feedback, improved stability and consistent damping behaviour across a session. This is a purpose-built replacement unit for the standard rear shock.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Developed from Ohlins racing experience, the STX 46 Supersport line is intended for riders who want a more controlled rear end response under braking, corner entry and throttle application. It’s a performance-oriented rear mono shock suited to fast road and track use on the ZX-10R.

Who this shock is for

  • ZX-10R riders chasing more stability and grip at the rear, especially when the pace increases
  • Track-day riders wanting a broader, more tuneable damping window than a standard shock
  • Owners who prefer a dedicated Ohlins unit designed specifically for their model fitment

Shock design & features

This is a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated shock design intended to help maintain consistent damping during sustained, high-temperature use. The STX architecture focuses on stable damping characteristics and predictable chassis behaviour when loads change quickly.

Tuning controls

The shock provides adjustable rebound damping and adjustable compression damping, allowing you to tailor how the rear responds to bumps, weight transfer and drive. These adjustments are intended to support proper setup for rider preference, tyres and conditions.

Before you install

  • Confirm the exact motorcycle model and year compatibility for KA345 before fitting
  • Inspect linkages and bearings during installation so the new shock isn’t limited by worn hardware
  • Plan a baseline setup session after fitment to balance front-to-rear behaviour

Serviceability/lifecycle

Like all performance dampers, this unit is designed to be serviced as part of normal ownership. Routine maintenance helps keep damping consistent and ensures the adjusters remain effective over time.
