AWESOME UNIT FOR THE HONDA
I'm impressed with this damper!I have CRF450 use for racing and recreational riding and i was getting pretty good head shake on high speed chop.After installing this the head shake is gone.I reaaly like the fact it mounts behind the number plate and is out of sight.Also doesnt require raising the handle bars or any special mounting hardware other than a couple bolts.What a difference it makes. Steering is super composed and so much calmer. Especially on rutted tracks working with Hayden Roberts at OCAMX. Haven't had it off road yet, but huge thumbs up so far!so "Durability" rating below is "To Be Determined".its half the cost of the other dampers and works good.

Nice but needs modification
I installed one on my KTM and it made a huge improvement in how the bike handled. I revalved it myself and put in 10w fork oil. I've never had problems with head shake and this wouldn't help with that anyways. I noticed it more in turns helping to keep the bike from wanting to climb out of the rut and on high speed sand rut turns. Down the straights that were on the rough side I also noticed the bike tracked better and didn't skip around in the back end so much. I went with the 20mm stabilizer and used the ride engineering bracket as they recommended the 20mm for moto and the 24mm for off road.I knew going in that I would need the Race Tech gold valve kit for this damper. I ride tight single track. No regrets.Thanks for the fast shipping and careful packaging. A classic Webike shopping,best price guaranteed.Would recommend! View detail
