The Ohlins KA756 is an STX 36 twin rear shock package for Kawasaki Street Line models, built around Ohlins’ road-focused performance architecture. It is designed to improve chassis control and tyre contact without compromising ride quality for real-world surfaces. The result is clearer feedback and more consistent damping through changing conditions.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Developed from Ohlins suspension know-how used across road and racing, this twin-shock setup targets stability, grip and predictable response. The STX 36 family is intended to give you tuning range without making setup overly complex. It suits riders who want suspension that remains composed when the pace lifts.

Who this shock is for

Suited to Kawasaki Street Line riders running twin rear shocks who want a more controlled rear end under acceleration, braking and cornering. It’s a good fit when you’re chasing better traction and balance rather than simply a firmer ride. Also appropriate if you regularly ride on mixed-quality roads and want damping that stays consistent.

Shock design & features

This is a gas-pressurised design to help maintain damping consistency as the shock works hard. The twin-shock configuration supports stable rear geometry and helps the bike track cleanly through turns. Ohlins’ STX 36 layout is aimed at delivering predictable response and usable adjustment for street performance riding.

Tuning controls

Adjustment is provided for rebound damping, allowing you to control how quickly the rear recovers after bumps and load changes. Spring preload is also adjustable to set ride height and sag to suit rider weight and usage. This combination is intended to let you dial in stability and comfort without chasing excessive complexity.

Before you install

• Confirm fitment for your exact Kawasaki model and year within the Street Line range.
• Set sag and preload first, then fine-tune rebound to match your tyre choice and typical road conditions.
• After installation, re-check fasteners and clearances and allow a short bedding-in period before making final adjustments.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Ohlins shocks are built to be serviceable so performance can be maintained over the long term. Regular inspection and periodic servicing helps keep damping consistent and protects internal wear components. Service intervals will vary with usage and riding environment.
