The Ohlins KA802 STX 46 Supersport rear shock is built for Kawasaki ZX-7R riders who want consistent damping control and clear feedback. Based on Ohlins STX architecture, it uses a gas-separated damping system to help maintain stability as conditions and pace change. It’s intended as a proper tuning component rather than a cosmetic upgrade.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins Supersport shocks are developed around predictable damping behaviour and reliable adjustability. The focus is on tyre contact, chassis balance and repeatable setup changes you can feel. This unit suits riders who value accurate suspension response over “set-and-forget” softness.

Who this shock is for

  • Track day and fast road riders chasing more support, traction and composure from the rear of a ZX-7R
  • Riders who want to tune rebound and compression to match tyres, track surfaces and riding style
  • Owners refreshing ageing suspension with a serviceable, performance-focused rear shock

Shock design & features

This STX 46 Supersport rear shock uses a pressurised, gas-separated layout rather than an emulsion design. The separation of oil and gas supports more consistent damping behaviour during demanding use. It’s a mono shock intended for rear fitment on the ZX-7R.

Tuning controls

  • Rebound damping adjustment to manage how the shock returns after bumps and load changes
  • Compression damping adjustment to control support under acceleration, braking and bumps
  • Ride height adjustment to help fine-tune chassis attitude and turn-in balance

Before you install

Set sag and baseline adjusters after installation, then make changes one step at a time to isolate effects. If your linkage bearings or swingarm pivots are worn, address those first so the shock can work as intended. Plan for periodic servicing to keep damping performance consistent over time.
