RE: SHINDY STEERING DAMPER
I have one on my bike. The installation was pretty simple, what are you having troubles with?
the 2 mounting brackets are attached to either side of the fairing stay underneath the guage cluster, and the steering damper brace is attached to the left fork under the clip-on, and the damper is attached to both. You have to position the fork bracket at the proper angle to allow the steering damper full range of motion so as it will not hit the left air dam, or the guages.

Hey Thanks for your reply.
The Problem is when I steer to the right it doesn’t goes all the way
and when I steer to the left it touch’s the clutch.
Do you have picture of your installation?
Thanks.

you are going to lose a bit of motion when turning the bars fully to the right, but the fact of hitting your clutch lever is only an adjustment issue. You may have to move the fork bracket down just a bit, to make it clear the lever. You should probably move the bracket holding the actual damper to the right, lined up like mine.

RE: SHINDY STEERING DAMPER
seems to work great, and the price was right. I got mine used for $115.00 shipped off e-bay
They are rebuildable, so if you can find one used that is not bent, you can get a rebuild kit for around $40 bucks.
The only bad problem with the Shindi Daytona damper is that it is in a pretty bad spot if you have a get-of on the left side. A Hyperpro or an Ohlins damper is o top of the triple tree, meaning it will take alot to damage it i a get-off, but the shindi may not fare as well under the same circumnstances.
Ohlins=$$$$$$$$
Hyperpro is pricey too
The shindi is pretty well priced.
