Steering Stabilizer?
Hey guys
I got a 01 929 Erion edition, my first 929. I have two problems i'm hoping you guys can help me out with. The first one, "head shake". Mine is really really bad, hit the bars alittle and it feels like bike is going to come out from underneath me. Will a stabalizer solve that, and what one do you guys recomend. The second problem, is a weird sound. It sound like something is loose at 3,700-4,000rpm, but i've taken the tank and air box off and cant find anything loose. any ideas?
Thanks for the inputs

RE: Steering Stabilizer?
Congrats, and welcome to the club. We hope your stay will be long and happy.
Part 1: Yes a steering damper will help and "any" will do. I have a Sprint and it works very well. Others have had good experience with Scotts, Ohlins, Arrow, and others. In part it will depend on your budget and the bling factor you are after. Want a 916-style or a steering head style? Then go from from there based on what you want to spend (expect to pay $300 - $700)
Part 2: Loose fairing? Or plastic in the fairing? Mine had "lost" some of the little screwy-clippy things inside the fairing and rattled badly (since fixed). Is the noise more mechanical? These puppies are notoriously noisy...
