Best place to buy a steering damper for an 09 D675

Hi All,

Just about to buy a hydraulic steering damper for the d675. Ohlins 916 style probably.

Has anyone got any recommendations of where to buy it from?

Since they rarely come up used was looking at a new one from Harris etc.

Thanks

I will be selling a used Elka damper in the next few weeks. It's simular to the GPR ones. I bought it so I could send my Pit Bull one off to be serviced in America.

Are you interested?

 

U can't buy an ohlins 916 style damper off the rack for the early Daytona. U have to use a hydro brake R with the ohlins damper I have it cost about £500 with them damper a lot of money but I love mine.

 

Sprint do a 916 style damper, as do hyperpro. Hyperpro even do one that fits in the same place as the OE one

 

Thanks guys!

0Luke0, not a huge fan of that type of steering damper. I just prefer the look of the hydraulic type. But thanks anyway.

 

They are hydraulic mate! Lol

 

You know what I mean!! Lol

 

Just looked at the hyper pro rsc one. Any got experience with them? Any good?

 

I have a pot bill damper. Really easy to fit and has loads of adjustment.

 

I had one in the oe position on my other bike when it was stolen. I mainly used it on track and liked it. The only thing is you can't adjust it on the fly. Although if you have it across the yoke you can obviously

 

I have a sprint damper on my roadbike,
Pitt bull on my race.
Sprint 916 style looks better imo & I've never required any more damping on the road.

 

This is for a track bike, or at least mostly track. Was thinking hyperPro in black and gold

 

i have scotts radial type damper
but had to buy direct from usa all scotts dealers in uk are off road specalists are refused to deal with road bike parts (tossers) got a good deal and was much cheaper then similar types in uk

 

Sprint for me on my track bike, always been great

 

elka products are rated quite highly in the usa and canada the shocks are actualy better thought of than ohlins but they are a canadian company so maybe the prefer local products
