Steering damper questions
alright i looked through the search and didnt find exactly what i was look for. so my questions are, which of the steering dampers are some of the better ones. also, if u buy an adjustable one like a gpr how do u know what setting to put it on? and how exactly does a steering damper work?

are you sure you want to buy one? do you do alot of wheelies or have a sprocket setup that makes the front wheel lighter?
the way how i can imagine it working if its mechanical and not digital is fluid restriction going through valves which makes it hard to turn at quick speeds.
if you're going to get one get a nice one, and make sure you need it. if you are stock and getting tank slappers you may want to check out your suspension.
i know it wasn't the answer you were looking for but someone is bound to chime in here.

I run a hyper pro but GPR and Scott are also good units. Some people prefer rotary style dampers such as the GPR and Scott. I think the GPR has a number which indicates the stiffness. Other types you just have to count how many clicks from full soft you are. The more your ride it, you will find if it is set too soft or too hard for your style of riding. I think I finally got mine adjusted where I like it.
