I know what a damper does but I do not see what the gain is for putting on on a cruiser. I have seen them on bikes and they are ugly. So Im asking does the gain top then the ugly?

If they didn't do anything they would be on every bike on a race track. They can slow down steering response to abrupt and unwanted inputs from the road and reduced rider fatigue. I like them. When I road sport bikes, and lots of wheelies and endos, they helped control the wheel when setting it back down and slowed steering input while riding on the front tire.
