The K-Tech 25IDS Open Cartridge Kit gives everyday riders and weekend track enthusiasts alike a meaningful, accessible upgrade — precise, independent damping adjustment that transforms how the ZX-6R responds to real-world road conditions across the entire 2009–2019 model range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e25mm Independent Damping System (25IDS) engineered specifically for the original ZX-6R fork internals, ensuring a direct, no-compromise fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24 clicks of independent compression adjustment and 30 clicks of independent rebound adjustment for fine-grained, rider-specific setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18 mm of spring preload adjustment to dial in ride height and balance for your weight and riding style\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncreased stroke over the stock cartridge delivers improved suspension travel and better small-bump compliance on public roads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHard-anodised, super-finished aerospace-grade aluminium construction for exceptional wear resistance and long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuggested baseline settings included (12 clicks compression, 18 clicks rebound, 8 mm preload) so you can ride confidently from day one\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for Real Riding, Ready for the Track\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 25IDS system separates compression and rebound circuits completely, meaning adjustments made to one have no influence on the other. This independence is what separates a genuinely tuneable cartridge from a compromise — you can soften the rebound for a more planted feel on rough tarmac without inadvertently affecting how the fork handles braking forces. For a ZX-6R used on both road and circuit, that flexibility is invaluable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll components are manufactured from aerospace-grade aluminium and subjected to a hard-anodising process followed by a super-finish surface treatment. The result is a cartridge that resists wear over thousands of miles, maintains consistent damping characteristics, and requires far less maintenance than softer-finished alternatives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Setup Guidance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eK-Tech recommends installation by an authorised K-Tech Service Centre to ensure correct assembly, oil fill, and initial setup. The suggested starting clicks — 12 compression, 18 rebound, 8 mm preload — give a sensible baseline that works well for a range of rider weights and road conditions, making it straightforward to begin refining from there. Please note that matching fork springs must be ordered separately; consult the K-Tech 36-260 spring series for compatible options.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis kit is designed to fit the following model:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eKawasaki ZX-6R (2009–2019)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e125-012-150-010\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eK-Tech\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSystem\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25mm Independent Damping System (25IDS)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInner Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e695.25 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStroke\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e125 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompression Adjustment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 clicks independent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRebound Adjustment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 clicks independent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpring Preload Adjustment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuggested Compression Setting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 clicks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuggested Rebound Setting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18 clicks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuggested Preload Setting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible Spring Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e36-260 series (sold separately)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAerospace-grade aluminium, hard-anodised and super-finished\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKawasaki ZX-6R (2009–2019)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"K-Tech","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53168834576650,"sku":"125-012-150-010","price":1180.82,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/25IDS_Piston_72c91e1a-4b15-4112-9618-59ddfa37c38c.png?v=1780817027","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/products\/k-tech-25ids-open-cartridge-kit-kawasaki-zx-6r","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
