Default Advice Steering Dampiner

I have a Honda 2001 F4i. I want to put a steering dampiner on it. What would you guys recommend? Is it hard to put on? What brands are good?

Thanks for any help.

try searching for "Steering Dampner" or damper, Id be willing to bet this question has been asked before.

If everyone just searched for thier answers, this forum would eventually die. Just answer the mans question (if you know the answer). To say "do a search" just comes off as a little rude and might give the wrong impression to newcomers who view this thread.

This is one of the friendliest and most helpful forums I have ever had the pleasure to be a part of. I would like to see that continue.



I, however, do not have any experience with aftermarket stering dampners. sorry.

haha thanks. I have been on this forum for many years and I know how to use it, but maybe I searched the wrong thing. I will try again. If anyone knows the anwser that would be great too.

RSC Active Steering Damper (changes with your speed)

That is my choice

A Google search for F4i Steering Damper comes up with a few.

someone gave you this link but i i selected the scotts damper. I find those to be better, but alittle more bulky. The reason why is because you have seperate adjuster for high speed and low speed dampening. So you can prevent head shake at 150 while still having easy steering when maneuvering around the parking lot. I have two of them, one for my dirt bike, and another for my 954. Just wish they offered then in different color to match the bike better.
