The KA840 has been about since the the Newgen came out. The KA841 is the 300 model number. But it is the same shock. I have a KA840 in my pregen based ZZR250. I’m about to move it to my Versys-X 300 as the 250 is off the road for some engine work. If anyone’s interested the X-300 uses the same shock size/length/fittings/stroke length as the Ninja 300, there may be internal damping changes, but the X-300 is quite stiff in the rear, so I suspect they are the same part.
