The ZRX shocks are pretty good and are 10mm longer (360mm eye to eye) than the standard Kawasaki shocks.
Hagon make good value replacement shocks,the basic ones being approx £100 with a 2 year warranty.Check out the HAGON website for more details.
Ohlins are amongst the best and the most expensive,£450+.
Overall the KYB shocks from the ZRX would be a very good buy depending on the price.
