Default Steering Damper Install

Does anyone know the procedures to install a steering damper like a Scott's on a 929? I'm debating doing this myself and was wondering if it's difficult? Thanks...

straight from Scotts Performance page they say that even Forest Gump could do it.
I did mine myself (hyperpro) and the only problem you may have is a socket big enough for the steering nut "i think" its a 30mm

"Is it easy to put on?
The majority of road bike applications are a pure "BOLT-ON" installation and take only 10-15 minutes to install. Our unique mounting position allows us to utilize the top steering nut for location and the rest of our kit uses existing mounting points your bike already has. There are a few exceptions to this rule but we always try to design the mounts with the customer in mind, making it as easy as possible. If you have any questions during installation we are here to help you. There is no welding and it mounts in minutes. The unit comes with a step by step instruction sheet that would make it easy even for Forest Gump. Remember though, this is a very sophisticated unit that does more for your motorcycle than any other after market improvement. You need to make sure you install it correctly to gain the maximum potential."

Very easy, just remember the Loctite that Scotts makes you use. I have one on my 954 and can tell a difference, really like it.
