The Ohlins TTX RT rear shock for the Kawasaki ZX-10R is built around a race-derived damping architecture aimed at delivering repeatable control and clearer tyre feedback. It is designed to help stabilise the chassis under heavy load changes, with damping behaviour that remains consistent as conditions and temperatures vary. This unit is intended for riders who want precise adjustability without compromising reliability.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

TTX technology is developed from top-level competition and adapted for high-performance road and track use. The layout focuses on stable damping behaviour and predictable response through the stroke, helping you tune the motorcycle to your riding style and circuit conditions.

Who this shock is for

Suited to ZX-10R riders who ride fast on track, ride aggressively on the road, or regularly change tyres, gearing, or ride heights and want suspension that can be properly dialled in. It’s also a strong match for riders chasing more consistent drive grip and calmer chassis behaviour during corner entry and exit.

Shock design & features

This is an oil/gas separated, gas-pressurised design intended to maintain damping stability during sustained hard use. The TTX RT architecture uses separate damping circuits to support consistent control and improved feel as loads build under braking, turn-in, and acceleration.

Tuning controls

The shock provides external adjustment for rebound damping and compression damping, plus a threaded spring preload adjuster for setting static and rider sag. These controls allow you to balance support, traction, and response for different tyres, tracks, and rider preferences.

Before you install

• Set sag first, then fine-tune rebound and compression based on tyre wear, grip level, and chassis behaviour.
• Check linkage condition and torque settings, as worn bearings and incorrect fastener preload can mask suspension changes.
• If you are unsure on spring selection or baseline settings for your weight and intended use, plan the setup before fitting.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Like any high-performance shock, regular servicing helps maintain damping consistency and seal life, particularly with frequent track use. Keeping oil condition and gas pressure in spec is key to preserving the intended performance and adjuster range.
