thanks i think i'm going with a hyperpro top mount damper it seems like the bang for your buck deal, but how do you know if a used one is still good?

that's cool. i heard teh CBR 1000RR had that, so since the ZX-10 doesn't come with a damper, this would make a good one. course, i won't be getting a ZX-10 anytime soon, but i know a few guys who will...

Re: Where to find dampners!
mainly for long stoppies after the 150 ft. mark it's hard without a damper, too many headshakes for me come close more than a few times this should help i hope.
