Where did I say you didn't need one? If it comes with one, sure, why the hell would you take it off?
But using your logic, if it didn't come with one on, then you don't need one on. Do I think that that is THE correct option? No. Differant riding styles will dictate the need/want.
As stated previously, it's a preferance issue PERIOD. The original poster never disclosed HOW he rides, he asked for input/opinions, and I gave mine, as did others.
Go bag on yourself.

Thanks. I figured I would try a 7 posituion cheapie out first and then go from there. Although if I get outbid it's okay, I won't be upset

I wasnt exactly talking about your reply. Just giving my general opinion. I prefer one and other people dont. I didnt mean for you to take it as I was taking a stab at you. I didnt quote any of your replies, I just put in a reply after your reply. Try not to take it personally.

Not a problem, I see how it could have looked that way. We all ride rr's anyway. We have to get along, lol

i was looking to put a dampener on my blade also honestly this to me is a great thread if your on the fence about getting one alot of great points on both sides brought up here. i will most likely add the dampener and see what difference it makes on the bike with me living in WV there is no such thing as a straight road and the arent very well taken care of. So i figure that the dampener would be a good saftey precaution if nothing else.
