Öhlins FKR 116 TTX 25 Cartridge Kit Racing – Honda CBR 1000 RR (2012-2019)

Extract every last tenth of a second from your Honda CBR 1000 RR with the Öhlins FKR Cartridge Kit Racing (TTX 25) FKR 116 — a purpose-built track upgrade engineered to transform the stock Showa fork into a fully tuneable racing suspension unit. Drawing on Öhlins' proven TTX technology, this cartridge kit delivers the damping precision and rapid response that serious club racers and circuit regulars demand.

Key Features

• TTX (Twin Tube X-over) technology provides exceptional damping control and faster response compared to conventional single-tube cartridge designs.
• Pressurised closed system is inherently resistant to cavitation and leakage, ensuring consistent, repeatable performance across an entire race distance.
• Extensive tuning range gives riders and mechanics the ability to dial in compression and rebound settings to suit specific circuits, conditions, and riding styles.
• Improved traction and chassis stability under hard braking and mid-corner load — exactly where lap times are made and lost.
• Compatible 04744-series springs are included in three rates (9.5, 10.0, and 10.5 N/mm) to cover a wide spread of rider weights and track setups.
• Installation manual included, supporting accurate and repeatable assembly in the workshop or paddock.

TTX Technology in the Track Environment

The TTX cartridge architecture routes oil through a cross-over port between the inner and outer tubes, eliminating the pressure differential that causes conventional cartridges to cavitate under repeated high-speed compression cycles. On a circuit like the CBR 1000 RR's natural habitat — tight, technical infields followed by high-speed braking zones — that means the fork behaves identically on lap one as it does on the final lap of a race. There is no fade, no vague mid-stroke, and no guesswork when setting up for the weekend.

Tuning Range and Setup

The FKR 116 is supplied with three spring rates specifically selected for the CBR 1000 RR's geometry and weight class. Riders can choose between 9.5, 10.0, and 10.5 N/mm to match their bodyweight and preferred chassis balance, then refine the feel through the cartridge's damping adjusters. Whether the priority is stability under braking into a chicane or agility on fast directional changes, the FKR 116 provides the mechanical range to achieve it without compromise.

Fitment & Compatibility

The Öhlins FKR 116 is designed exclusively for the Honda CBR 1000 RR produced between 2012 and 2019, fitted with the original Showa fork. It is intended for closed-circuit competition use only and does not hold type approval for use on public roads (not StVZO compliant). Always verify fork model and tube diameter before installation.
