The Ohlins STX 46 Supersport rear shock for the Kawasaki ZX-6R and ZX-6RR is built for riders chasing consistent damping control and clear chassis feedback. It uses a gas-separated design to help maintain stable performance as temperatures and loads change. Developed from Ohlins road racing experience, it’s intended for precise tuning rather than a one-size-fits-all feel.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

STX 46 Supersport is a focused rear-shock platform aimed at sport riding and track work where repeatability matters. The design supports accurate adjustment and predictable response during corner entry, mid-corner stability, and drive off the turn.

Who this shock is for

  • ZX-6R / ZX-6RR riders who want more controlled damping behaviour than a standard unit
  • Track-day and race riders looking for a tuneable rear end with consistent feel
  • Sport riders who prioritise stability, grip and feedback over comfort-focused softness

Shock design & features

This is an STX 46 Supersport rear mono shock with a gas-separated internal layout. Separation of oil and gas helps keep damping response more consistent during hard use and repeated heat cycles.

Tuning controls

Adjustment is provided for rebound damping and compression damping, along with ride height adjustment. These controls allow you to balance support, traction and chassis attitude to suit tyres, pace and track conditions.

Before you install

  • Confirm compatibility with your exact ZX-6R / ZX-6RR model and year before fitting
  • Set sag and verify ride height changes won’t cause clearance issues
  • After installation, re-check fasteners and settings after the first ride session

Serviceability/lifecycle

Like all performance dampers, regular servicing helps maintain consistent damping and seals over time. Plan service intervals based on usage intensity, especially if the bike sees frequent track work.
