Who here has steering dampers on there bike?- i think i am going to try and start doing other things in my wheelies but scared i might loose it and land it with the wheel turned? Is that aproblem for anyone here? How many of you stunt with or without dampers? I know theyw ould help alot for endos right? would you consider it a must to get?


Also how often do u guys mess up on highchairs? SEems like that would be the worst wreck from a highchair but i guess its just baby steps like most thinks just keep getting it higher and higher.

 

Scotts here...

954 is really really bad without a damper tho...

 

hyperpro here...

 

I run nothing on mine......never have had head shake even. I need to for when I start speeding up my endos'. I usually start at 40-50 no problem.

 

scotts is the ****, adjustable and I only had to buy the mounting bracket to change from one bike to another

 

ohlins here

 

GPR like scotts but cheaper few less options but still mint

 

Hell yeah, My 02 R1 is the exact same!!!!

SCOTTS

 

never liked the top mount,jus seems to be more adjustment with a good front mount tube style
those top mounts seem to not get really tight
just my opinion

 

sprint damper

 

I've never had one, but I will definetley have one on my next bike

 

I hear ya on that bro...

My 1st scoot lasted like 1 day at the track and tha **** wasnt working right... so i sent it back for warranty and they just replaced it right away...... but i think imma change my scotts for an ohlins ... i dunno why but it seems to get a bit tighter then the scotts.

 

Who uses dampers? ...Everyone that values their life, that's who. Stunting without one is suicide. I don't care if you use a cheap-*** one; just use one. Only exception is a stock Suzuki one (useless). I've used expensive ones and cheap ones. The one I use now is a Shindy (about 200 bones) and in over a year it's never screwed up, even after bike was down two-three times.

 

yes i would love to get one but scotts ohlins 400 bucks is alot to shell out. Just wanted to see if you guys thought it was must to do endo's and other things.

 

Shindy for me.

 

Agreed. I wouldnt even think of riding mine without it.

 

lol

 

got a daytona and haven't had no problems

 

sprint here. after the tank slappers i had on the freeway i bought one right away.
