Do you do stoppies, if so do you have a steering damper

NinjaTurtle · 10-05-2004, 08:34 PM

Just seeing how many people do and don't use dampers with stoppies, some people say you should't do a stoppie without one so....

jbone · 10-05-2004, 10:11 PM

i've got a scott's on one bike and a hyperpro on the other one scott's is by far the best dampner out there well worth the money i used to do them without a damper now you wouldn't catch me doing it without one

kingtuts · 10-05-2004, 10:12 PM

Damn that's a lot! I was about to go that route, but my friend is gonna sell me his Scott's w/ mounting kit for $100

Can't beat that price!!! :YEAH

I'm rolling 300ft with no damper, but don't trust it no more. Got a custom built one on the way, curtosy of ICS damper.

I used to have a ICS damper and was rolling almost 400ft, but too squirrly for me without one

forcefedfreak · 10-06-2004, 12:27 AM

Yes, no

ranchosmog · 10-06-2004, 01:11 AM

i got a scotts too i was doing fine with out it but now that its on i feel more confident, i usually keep it one click down from the tightest setting even around town it doesnt bother me. i got it more so for the higher speed wheelies it never crossed my mind to get it for stoppies.

paragus · 10-06-2004, 11:06 AM

929 rollin them without one, had one bad tankslapper, and a few wobbles.. im not gonna push myself any more till i get one, i think im gonna go ohlins

tuhy979 · 10-06-2004, 11:24 AM

I run an ICS also makes a ton of difference. I kept stock on too.

KROHNSTUNTS · 10-06-2004, 11:29 AM

i dont use one even though i should. its kinda like a condom

Ruff · 10-06-2004, 12:25 PM

I just started learning to roll em out so I put an Ohlins on yesterday. Haven't had a chance to try it out yet though... Can't wait! :YEAH

verticalfrank · 10-06-2004, 12:55 PM

rollin 400+ without one, I know I need to get one ....I've had some headshakes and I did get tossed by one at the end of a stoppie. anyone know of a scott's dampener for sale??

RoadStainR6 · 10-06-2004, 12:58 PM

Not rollin any huge endo's or anything... but I don't have one. I will when I get the money though. Next season I'll most likely pick up a scotts for whatever my new stuntbike is.

D-WRECK · 10-06-2004, 01:40 PM

could any one put up a web site so i can get my ass one

j900rr · 10-06-2004, 01:47 PM

i dont use one , i've had tank slap only once an a few wobbles but i think it might be time to invest in one just to be on the safe side

DSB........NO YOUR NOT LISTENING..........DIRTY SHORE BOYS!!!!!!

I have one, but the way it mounts you can't have it on with the streetfighter headlight mounted at the same time. If I ever turn the f3 into a parking lot bike, I'll put it back on otherwise I'm doing them without.

f4rider · 10-06-2004, 02:24 PM

Don't have one. I want one, but I'm cheap and they're damn expensive. Are there any top mount rod dampers for cheaper than 400?
