The Ohlins KA647 STX 46 Street rear shock is built for road riders who want more composed damping control from the rear of their Kawasaki GPZ 1000 RX. Based on Ohlins’ STX architecture, it focuses on predictable feedback and consistency across changing road conditions. It’s designed to be tunable, so you can tailor rear grip and chassis attitude to your bike and riding style.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins street shocks take proven internal layouts and adapt them for real-world roads, where compliance and control matter as much as outright support. The aim is stable damping behaviour and clear feedback so you can make informed setup changes.

Who this shock is for

  • Riders chasing improved rear-end control and confidence on the road.
  • Owners who want a quality replacement with proper adjustability rather than a fixed, non-tunable unit.
  • Anyone looking to dial in ride quality and stability to suit different loads and riding pace.

Shock design & features

This is a monotube STX 46 Street rear shock with an oil/gas separated damping layout for consistent performance. The internal design is intended to maintain stable damping behaviour during extended riding and repeated bumps, while keeping the rear tyre better connected to the road surface.

Tuning controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment
  • Spring preload adjustment

Before you install

Check overall condition of the linkage and mounting hardware before fitting, as worn bearings or bushes can mask the benefits of a new shock. Once installed, set sag and confirm the bike sits correctly in its stroke before making rebound changes.

Serviceability/lifecycle

As a serviceable Ohlins unit, this shock can be maintained over its life with periodic oil and wear-part replacement. Routine servicing helps keep damping consistent and ensures adjustments remain effective.
