there's another thread around here about the f4i with a stabilizer, do you often have tank slappers?
the f4i shouldn't need a stabilizer, are you getting one just because, or did you adjust your bike in a way where you need it?

There would be about 10 pages of info to compare them all.
That's probably why no one has replied.

But, brief comparison.

Scotts has the most adjustability. (High speed / Low Speed / Swept Control)
It's also rotary design, so there is less chance to have a damaged shaft in the event of a crash. It's also more compact.

Ohlins has been around for over 30 yrs. so they kinda of the market when it comes to damper control. Be it a Shock, fork, and steering damper.
So most consider their damper to be the best. Their Damper is linear design.


GPR is also a rotary damper, with one single adjustment on the top.
A lot of guy like the Big *** for adjusting with gloves.
But, most riders find that once you adjust your damper, you kinda leave it. It's not like your riding around and constantly changing it. At least most riders don't do that.

Hyper Pro makes a great damper as well. Theirs is a shaft style Damper. It has a has built in circuit that switches from low speed to high speed automatically. But, this is NOT adjustable. Only the low speed is adjustable.

There are probably about 10 + other options of dampers out there.
These are the top 4 brands as far as Sales goes.
From another website.
