The Ohlins STX 46 Supersport rear shock for the Kawasaki ZXR 750 is built around proven race-derived damping architecture for consistent control and feedback. It is a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated design intended to maintain stable damping behaviour over demanding sessions. This unit suits riders who want a clear, tunable chassis feel without complicating the package.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins Supersport shocks are developed to deliver repeatable damping performance and predictable handling changes when you adjust the settings. The focus is on traction, support and stability under braking and acceleration, with a practical layout for track-focused motorcycles.

Who this shock is for

• Supersport riders using the ZXR 750 on track days or spirited road riding where consistent damping matters.
• Riders who want separate tuning of key damping behaviours to suit tyres, pace and surface conditions.
• Owners replacing a tired or limited OEM rear unit with a purpose-built performance shock.

Shock design & features

• STX 46 Supersport architecture with a gas-pressurised, oil/gas separated internal layout for stable damping feel.
• Built for consistent response and clear chassis feedback during corner entry, mid-corner support and drive off the turn.

Tuning controls

• Rebound damping adjustment to manage how the rear returns after compression events.
• Compression damping adjustment to tune support under braking, bumps and acceleration load.
• Ride height adjustment to help balance turn-in behaviour and rear grip feel.

Before you install

• Set sag and confirm spring suitability for rider weight and intended use before finalising damping settings.
• Start with the supplied factory preset, then adjust one circuit at a time to isolate changes.
• Check clearance, linkage condition and mounting hardware during installation to ensure the shock can work freely.

Serviceability/lifecycle

This Ohlins unit is designed to be serviced and reconditioned as part of normal performance maintenance. Regular servicing helps maintain damping consistency and protects internal components, particularly with frequent track use.
