Overview
A steering damper, or steering stabilizer is a damping device designed
to inhibit an undesirable, uncontrolled movement or oscillation of a
vehicle steering mechanism, a phenomenon known in motorcycling as
wobble.
Motorcycles with a short wheelbase and an aggressive steering geometry
provides the ability to make very quick changes in direction. As a
side-effect it the bike is less stable, gives less feedback from uneven
road surfaces, and is more difficult to control. If the front wheel is
not completely inline from the direction of travel when it touches down
after a small wheelie, it may cause an unwanted wobble. Steering dampers
are factory installed on more and more high-end motorcycles, not only
sport, but also naked and big all-roads. This is to counter these
undesirable behavior. Steering dampers offer comfort and safety. ...and
Hyperpro offers the best!
Colors Available are Solid Black (Gold Adjuster) Dark, (all black), Mad Red, Hyper Purple (blue-ish), and Gold
A Hyperpro steering damper reduces this kind of risk to a bare minimum.
These wobbles - Tank-slappers - and vibrations are intercepted by the
damper. As a result, you have a bike that steers the way you want and
reacts the way you’d hope for in unexpected circumstances.
- Fully adjustable – Damping can be adjusted in 22 positions.
- Fully re-buildable with spare parts availability.
- High quality bearings
- Low friction design due to Ø8mm piston rod with special surface treatment.
- One-piece piston rod – Perfect alignment through the slide bearings and no excessive force on the piston.
- Triple function seals. Dust scraper and double oil seal, ensuring that dust cannot enter and oil cannot exit.
- Nitrogen pressurized heat expansion reservoir – Gas pressure prevents against foaming.
