The Ohlins STX 36 Twin is a rear shock solution designed for twin-shock Kawasaki fitments, aimed at improving control and consistency on the road. Built around Ohlins street-focused architecture, it supports more precise damping behaviour than a basic replacement unit. This unit is supplied as a matched pair for rear twin-shock applications.

Ohlins | Made to race, perfected to ride

Ohlins twin shocks are engineered with a focus on stable chassis behaviour, predictable grip and repeatable performance over long road rides. The STX family is developed to deliver controlled damping response without compromising day-to-day ride quality.

Who this shock is for

  • Riders of Kawasaki Z 1000, Z 750 GP, Z900 and Zephyr 1100 models running a rear twin-shock layout
  • Owners refreshing ageing suspension who want a higher-quality, serviceable rear end
  • Street riders looking for a more composed ride and clearer feedback through corners

Shock design & features

This is an STX 36 Twin rear shock set for twin-shock fitment. The design uses a separated oil and gas arrangement to help maintain damping stability, particularly as temperatures and usage vary.

Tuning controls

Adjustability is provided via rebound damping adjustment, allowing you to tailor how quickly the rear returns after compression. This helps balance comfort, traction and chassis attitude for your road conditions and riding style.

Serviceability/lifecycle

Ohlins shocks are designed to be serviced and rebuilt as part of normal ownership. Regular servicing helps maintain damping consistency and protects internal components, especially on older motorcycles where suspension condition is critical to handling.
