From its precision-machined 35 mm body to its hardened 14 mm piston rod, every component reflects the exacting tolerances K-Tech is known for across British Superbike and World Supersport paddocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e14-click compression damping adjustment for fine-tuned response across road and track conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16-click rebound damping adjustment for precise control during rapid direction changes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable spring preload accommodates a wide range of rider weights and load configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength adjustment (RCU travel 4.00 mm) allows ride height and handling balance to be dialled in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNitrogen (N2) charge at 10.00 bar eliminates aeration and maintains consistent damping under sustained hard use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e46-150-140 spring included as standard; alternative spring rates available for individual rider requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect OEM replacement fit — no modifications required for Ninja 400 (2018–2023)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Materials\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe RAZOR-R is built around a 35.00 mm diameter aluminium body, hard-anodised for corrosion resistance and long service life. The 14.00 mm diameter piston rod is precision-ground and hard-chrome plated to resist wear and maintain seal integrity over tens of thousands of kilometres. Mounting eyes are machined to tight tolerances — the upper eye measures 30.00 mm wide with a 10.00 mm bolt diameter, and the lower eye 40.00 mm wide with a 10.00 mm bolt diameter — ensuring a solid, rattle-free installation with zero slop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe nitrogen gas charge is sealed within a dedicated reservoir that keeps oil and gas separated, preventing foaming under the repeated compression cycles of spirited riding. The result is damping that remains linear and predictable whether you are commuting on a damp morning or chasing lap times at a track day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOn Road and On Track\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFitting the RAZOR-R transforms the Ninja 400 from a capable learner-sports machine into a chassis that responds precisely to rider input. The 65.00 mm stroke and 320.00 mm total length (with a tolerance of -4 mm \/ +6 mm) match the OEM geometry exactly, so the steering geometry is preserved while suspension compliance and control are dramatically improved. Traction under acceleration, composure mid-corner and feedback through the seat all improve noticeably — qualities that matter equally on a mountain pass and on circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis shock absorber is designed and validated specifically for the following motorcycle:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eKawasaki Ninja 400 — model years 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart number: 279S-018-150-005\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be carried out exclusively by an authorised K-Tech Service Centre.
