Öhlins NIX 30 Supersport Front Fork Cartridge Kit

Yamaha YZF-R6 (2008–2015) – Kayaba Forks

Race-Proven Front Suspension Upgrade

Take your Yamaha YZF-R6 to the next level with the Öhlins NIX 30 Supersport Front Fork Cartridge Kit. Developed using technology from World Supersport and Superstock racing, this cartridge system delivers improved front-end stability, enhanced braking control, and superior rider feedback for both track riding and aggressive street use.

Designed specifically for 2008–2015 Yamaha YZF-R6 models equipped with Kayaba (KYB) forks, the NIX 30 cartridge kit replaces the OEM internal fork components with precision Öhlins damping technology. The result is more consistent suspension performance, increased front tire grip, and improved overall chassis balance.

Performance Benefits

• Increased front-end stability during aggressive braking

• Reduced fork dive and improved brake support

• Enhanced front tire grip and rider feedback

• Greater confidence during corner entry and trail braking

• Smooth suspension response over bumps and curbing

• Wider tuning range for precise suspension setup

The NIX 30 system is engineered to provide both race-level performance and street rideability, making it ideal for track-day riders and performance-focused street riders.

Advanced Öhlins NIX Technology

NIX 30 Damping Architecture

The Öhlins NIX system separates damping functions between fork legs:

• Compression damping in the left fork leg

• Rebound damping in the right fork leg

This design improves damping precision, chassis stability, and simplifies suspension tuning.

External Adjustability

Compression, rebound, and spring preload adjustments are conveniently located at the top of the fork legs, allowing riders to quickly adjust suspension settings.

Race-Derived Engineering

Derived from Öhlins’ extensive racing experience, the cartridge kit delivers stable damping characteristics and improved control during high-performance riding.

Direct Drop-In Upgrade

The kit installs directly into the OEM fork legs, providing a major suspension upgrade without replacing the entire fork assembly.
