Title: Steering Damper
Post by: Fast4fun on October 22, 2006, 06:34:51 PM
Does anybody have experience with the GPR top mount steering damper? I need one for my bike and this is available for a good price.

I have one on my 600rr.  I've had no problems or issues with it what so ever, but it's only been on about 1/2 this year.
If it's used I recommend you send it in to GPR for a service (about $25 - $30) ASAP- cheap insurance.

Thanks for the input. It makes my decision a no brainer.

I had a GPR top mount on my SV.  I really liked it.

I dig the traditional style dampers. In my humble opinion (IMHO) there is better feel and control.
