yep JP, been talking of them since I had came here, the handlebar risers are in the way of the prospective rotary damper, who ever makes this application

for the SD will need to make a top triple clamp "kit" for it to work? in other words, the risers are in the way of the spot where the damper would mount.
There are'nt that many people fitting steering dampers at all. Those that are usually go for the cheaper accross the yoke type. If you want some bling though, fill yer boots.
Well F, I would like to hammer something home on the subject,,, on the track at hallett, I think it is called turn 2, but it is not really a turn, it is more of a

crest, a slight peak in the pavement on the top edge of a hill, (going around 100 mph) the 07 SD feels very scary right at the moment I go over it,

nearly have to take my hands off of the bars to keep any smallest, little tiny input from my hands, it causes this bike to feel completely unstable, as if it could be

the start of a headshake and tank slapper,,,then causing a highside! this is one thing I would be happy to throw a little bling on thare if it would stop this

nervous feeling in the front end.... I dread that part of the race track only, because I think it could cause me to wipe out.
