Default steering dampner

who has a steering dampner on a dyna?
what type of benefit did you get from this?
is it worth it? my bike already feels good and stable , but I was just wondering if it makes a big difference

also, what brand and where did you get it

hey Joe, I think I might have asked in the past but can't find it.

Could you post a close-up picture of the dampner installed on your bob?

Where did you buy yours?
How much was it?
Is it intrusive into the cables etc, where does it mount?

Sounds like a good thing.
