Engineered to meet the exacting standards demanded by both road and track, the K-Tech 25IDS Open Cartridge Kit transforms the front-end performance of the Kawasaki ZX-10 R and ZX-10 RR (2016–2026). Built around K-Tech's 25 mm Independent Damping System, this cartridge kit delivers a level of precision and adjustability that the OEM internals simply cannot match — giving you confident, predictable handling whether you are threading through a technical circuit or navigating a demanding road.
Key Features
- 25 mm Independent Damping System (25IDS) designed specifically to replace the factory fork cartridge on the ZX-10 R/RR
- 30 independent compression clicks and 30 independent rebound clicks for granular, separated damping adjustment
- Precise spring preload adjustment and increased stroke versus the original cartridge for superior chassis tuning capability
- Aerospace-grade aluminium construction throughout, with hard-anodised super-finished components for outstanding durability and wear resistance
- Wide range of compatible springs available separately (36-260 series) to match rider weight, style and circuit demands
- Installation by an authorised K-Tech Service Centre is recommended to ensure correct set-up and safety
Performance and Build Quality
The 25IDS architecture separates compression and rebound circuits entirely, allowing you to dial in each damping characteristic without one influencing the other. This independence is the foundation of repeatable, data-driven set-up work — critical when fractions of a second or millimetres of feedback matter. The hard-anodised super-finished surfaces minimise friction inside the cartridge, ensuring the fork responds accurately to even the smallest road or track inputs rather than masking them.
Aerospace-grade aluminium keeps unsprung and reciprocating mass to a minimum while maintaining structural integrity under the severe loading cycles of track use. The increased stroke over the factory cartridge widens the window for spring and damping adjustment, making this kit equally at home on a full track build and a road-biased set-up.
Set-Up Guidance
K-Tech provides a baseline starting point to get you onto the circuit quickly. The suggested settings are a compression click position of 14, a rebound click position of 18, and a spring preload of 8 mm. These figures are a calibrated starting position, not a final tune — the 30-click range in each direction gives you ample scope to refine from there. Springs from the 36-260 series must be ordered separately to complete the installation.
Fitment and Compatibility
This cartridge kit is designed exclusively for the following models:
- Kawasaki ZX-10 R (2016–2026)
- Kawasaki ZX-10 RR (2016–2026)
Installation by an authorised K-Tech Service Centre is strongly recommended. Correct fitting is essential for fork function, rider safety and warranty validity.
