DescriptionThe whole story▼
Built to the same exacting standards as Öhlins' championship-winning hardware in Moto3, Moto2 and World Superbike, the FKR 107 Cartridge Kit Racing brings genuine race-grade front suspension engineering to the Kawasaki ZX-6R. Every component in this kit is manufactured to tolerances that separate serious track machinery from the rest — this is not an upgrade, it is a transformation.
Key Features
- Closed pressurised-spring system eliminates the risk of pressure loss through seal weep, delivering consistent damping performance lap after lap.
- TTX technology with a newly developed piston and 8 mm piston rod reduces internal pressure for faster, more precise damping response across the full stroke.
- Linear damping characteristic provides a broader tuning window, giving riders and technicians finer control over rebound and compression settings.
- Derived directly from Moto3, Moto2 and World Superbike programmes — race-proven at the highest level of competition.
- Simpler and more maintenance-friendly architecture than traditional gas-pressure fork systems, reducing service downtime between track days.
- Three fork springs included (9.0, 9.5 and 10.0 N/mm) to allow precise spring-rate matching to rider weight and track conditions.
Engineering Excellence
The FKR Cartridge Kit operates as a sealed, spring-under-pressure unit. Unlike conventional gas-pressure fork internals, the closed-system design removes the sealed gas chamber from the equation entirely. The result is a more consistent pressure environment inside the cartridge, eliminating the performance drift that can occur when gas-side seals degrade over a season of hard use.
The 8 mm piston rod at the heart of the TTX system is a deliberate material and geometry choice: the reduced diameter lowers the effective rod area acting against the oil column, which in turn reduces the pressure spike on compression. This translates directly into a more linear force curve — exactly what a skilled rider needs to extract the last tenth on a demanding circuit.
Track Use and Setup
The FKR 107 is designed exclusively for closed-circuit competition use. With three spring rates in the box, a technician can dial in the correct front-end stiffness for a given rider and venue before touching the external adjusters. That foundation means the damping tune is built on the right spring platform from the outset — the only correct way to set up a competition fork.
Installation requires specialist Öhlins tools and the correct grade of fork oil, neither of which is included. Öhlins strongly recommends fitting by an authorised Öhlins service centre. Tools and fork oil are available through the Öhlins online shop.
Fitment and Compatibility
