DescriptionThe whole story▼
Restore your Suzuki GSX-R 1000's rear suspension to full working order with the K-Tech shock absorber service kit 205-200-020. Covering all model years from 2009 through 2023, this kit gathers every essential wear component into one convenient purchase, making a routine shock service straightforward and cost-effective without compromising on quality.
Key Features
- Complete seal and hardware set for a full shock absorber service in a single kit
- Oil seal prevents fluid loss, maintaining consistent damping performance over time
- Dust seal shields internal components from road grime and debris, extending service life
- Piston rod bush ensures smooth, rattle-free shock operation after reassembly
- High-quality O-rings deliver reliable sealing under repeated compression and rebound cycles
- Replacement piston rod lock nut restores factory-level security after every rebuild
Build Quality and Purpose
K-Tech Suspension is a UK-based manufacturer with decades of experience in high-performance damper engineering. Every component in this service kit is produced to OEM-matching tolerances, ensuring a precise fit and dependable long-term performance. Whether you service your GSX-R 1000 annually as part of a planned maintenance schedule or are refreshing a suspension unit that has developed a leak or loss of damping, this kit delivers all the parts you need without sourcing individual seals from multiple suppliers.
Everyday Usability and Value
For riders who cover significant road mileage on their GSX-R 1000, keeping the rear shock in good condition has a direct impact on handling confidence, comfort and tyre wear. A worn or leaking shock absorber quietly degrades feedback and stability long before it becomes obvious. Refreshing the unit with this kit restores the progressive, controlled damping that makes the GSX-R 1000 so rewarding to ride, at a fraction of the cost of a replacement damper. Stocking one kit ahead of a scheduled service avoids waiting on parts and keeps downtime to a minimum.
Installation Note
K-Tech strongly recommends that installation is carried out by an authorised K-Tech Service Centre. Specialised tools and techniques are required for correct assembly to ensure the safety and performance of the product.
