Steering Damper
Gents
Considering a steering damper for my stock bike. I'm trying to consider more authentic options. Would be interested to see if others have fitted dampers to a stock bike (with appropriate brackets) and how they did it.
In parallel across top of yoke, slung under bottom yoke or a more traditional location for the year of the bike down alongside the fuel tank.
Please post pics
Thanks in advance

Re: Steering Damper
Thanks for that. I'd be keen to see how you mounted the 500 one. I can see some kind of fabricated plate.where does that attach to? Do you have any clearer pics etc.. the mount for the fork is obvious. It's the other end I'm interested in
Thanks
Thanks
Re: Steering Damper
The bracket for the frame is a tough one to find, I got this one from John (Silverstrom), I'm not sure if he has any more, Shoot him a PM and see if he has some or access to more..

Re: Steering Damper
Ok thanks. I'll try John
Do you have any pictures of the brackets off of the bike. I can then see how it fits and fabricate one myself
Cheers
