Why do you a steering damper? If you really need one, there is probably something causing the problem you need to fix.

It's a shame you'd have to buy something like that. Harley used to come with a yoke tightener which was a steering dampener. It was a large **** on top of the yoke. You could loosen or tighten it by hand to get the "feel" that you wanted. Worked great on the highway too. Snug it up some and riding the bike was virtually hands free..

Look right in front of the tank console and you'll see what I'm talking about. I've always wondered if a modern Harley could be retrofitted with one..
