Hi everybody, just bought a superduke R on an 07 plate. I've only riden it 3 times so far (rubbish weather)
I was looking at the bike the other day in the shed and noticed that I could rock the steering damper forwards and backwards. Is this normal or is it loose I'm just a bit concerned that it might fall off or something as I cant even see how it is fixed to the bike (its mounted on a small bracket oppisite the radiator)
Any help appriciated

It is normal that the steering damper is 'rocking'....

It is necessary that way, because the angle between steering damper and fork/frame fixation is changing all the time.

Not sure what you mean, but I believe the damper was recalled for some. You probably should check it with your dealer to be safe.
