The Ohlins KA416 is a rear STX 36 twin shock kit for the Kawasaki ZRX 1200, built around Ohlins race-derived damping architecture for consistent control on the street. It uses a gas-charged, oil/gas separated design to help maintain damping stability as conditions change. Adjustment is provided for rebound damping and compression damping, along with ride height to refine chassis balance.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins suspension units are engineered to deliver predictable response and clear feedback, with a focus on controlled movement rather than harshness. This twin-shock arrangement is intended to suit classic chassis layouts while bringing modern damping behaviour.

Who this shock is for

  • ZRX 1200 riders who want more composure from the rear under braking and acceleration
  • Owners looking to tune rear grip and stability without changing the character of a twin-shock bike
  • Riders who value adjustability for different roads, loads, and riding pace

Shock design & features

  • STX 36 twin-shock configuration for rear fitment on twin-shock applications
  • Gas-charged, oil/gas separated damping system to help resist fade and keep response consistent
  • Ohlins valving approach aimed at traction and controlled chassis movement

Tuning controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment
  • Compression damping adjustment
  • Ride height adjustment to fine-tune chassis attitude

Before you install

  • Set sag and baseline damping after installation so adjustments are meaningful and repeatable
  • Confirm clearance and alignment on a twin-shock chassis, especially if you adjust ride height
  • After initial rides, re-check fasteners and re-confirm settings once the suspension has bedded in

Serviceability/lifecycle

This is a rebuildable Ohlins unit designed for ongoing servicing. Periodic maintenance helps keep damping consistent and protects internal components over the long term.
