Öhlins FKR Cartridge Kit Racing TTX 25 FKR 115 – Ducati Panigale V4 (2018–2024)

Engineered from the ground up for the Ducati Panigale V4, the Öhlins FKR 115 Cartridge Kit Racing brings TTX 25 technology directly into the factory forks — a closed, spring-pressurised system built to the exacting tolerances Öhlins is renowned for in Grand Prix paddocks. Every component reflects premium materials and race-grade construction, delivering the consistency and adjustability that separates a truly sorted front end from a merely upgraded one.

Key Features

• Closed, spring-pressurised system prevents pressure loss and maintains consistent damping performance throughout a full race session.
• Advanced TTX technology paired with a purpose-developed piston and 8 mm piston rod measurably reduces internal pressure and sharpens initial response.
• Linear damping characteristic unlocks a wide tuning range, allowing precise adjustment of traction and stability to suit track conditions and riding style.
• Three springs from the 04744 series (9.5, 10.0 and 10.5 N/mm) included, so you can dial in the correct spring rate from the moment the kit is fitted.
• Maintenance-friendly architecture keeps service intervals straightforward and keeps the unit performing as new across seasons of hard use.

Build Quality and Materials

The FKR 115 is the product of Öhlins' decades-long involvement in top-level motorsport. The cartridge internals are manufactured to race tolerances: the 8 mm piston rod is selected for its stiffness-to-weight ratio, resisting deflection under the extreme lateral and braking loads generated by the Panigale V4 at the limit. The closed system architecture is not a cost measure — it is a deliberate engineering choice that eliminates the aeration and pressure inconsistency that plague conventional cartridge designs under sustained high-speed use. The result is damping behaviour that remains faithful to your setup lap after lap, not just on the out-lap.

On Track Performance

Fitting the FKR 115 transforms the front-end feel of the Panigale V4 from the stock road-biased calibration to something genuinely competition-ready. The linear damping curve means changes to compression and rebound settings produce predictable, proportional responses — a critical quality when you are fine-tuning between sessions. Traction under braking improves because the fork tracks surface irregularities without deflecting, and stability through fast direction changes is noticeably enhanced once the correct spring rate is selected from the included set. Öhlins recommend installation by an authorised Öhlins Service Centre to ensure the cartridges are fitted, bled and set up correctly for maximum benefit.
