wallycycle Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Purchased the under bar Steering Damper and mounting kit. The kit came with the incorrect link arm. Not long enough. Had to mount the tower pin support 180 degrees out and bush the Damper up with some washers. A little improvising on the tower pin height adjustment as well. Otherwise went in easy. Works very well. Took it out on a favorite desert road that has lots of linear grooves that before had unsettled the bike at speed, especially on the gas and leaned over. Bike would get really twitchy. Now, very composed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallycycle Posted November 26, 2016 Author Share Posted November 26, 2016 Bought on Ebay. Various vendors. They all sell the same kit. So I just went for vendor rating and price. Mine came in about 10 days, no customs duty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adjuster Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Here is what I've found on this. Photos are kinda screwed up, but there is one of it installed. Looks sanitary. would like all the alloy in black however, but nothing a can of rattle flat black can't solve. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Steering-Damper-With-Mounting-Bracket-For-Yamaha-MT-09-Tracer-2015/131878184016?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D38530%26meid%3D6ca08f8e95074c8eaa92f9b1837966bf%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D252379271419 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallycycle Posted November 26, 2016 Author Share Posted November 26, 2016 Yes. That's the kit. In the photos you can see that the link arm extends to the rear proud of the Damper body. My link arm was shorter by about 10 -15mm and did not extend that far back. I did not buy from this vendor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
