Is Stealing Damper more effective on public roads?

What made you decide to buy?
My 6R Circuit is not driven, but … there are a lot of rough and rutted roads when driving on public roads. I think national roads are clean even in rural areas because of the budget, but prefectural and city roads have limited budgets and are often rough. The roads are often rutted, especially when large vehicles drive on them, and you may get hit by a handlebar if you are driving a motorbike. In a sense, the Steering Damper is more effective on ordinary roads than on circuits. (Lol) My 6R on such local roads, I decided to purchase the Handlebar to reduce shock and vibration.

How was your experience with it?
The Steering Damper I purchased moves the Piston in the Cylinder filled with Oil as the Steering Damper moves. After installing the Steering Damper, I drove on a rough city road with a small repair budget. I drove with the damping force set back 4 steps from the standard setting. The result was that the handlebar could be held more firmly than before installation, and it was easy to handle even at low speeds. Also, while driving at high speeds, the handlebar swung as the speed increased. The Stain Phenomenon. There are various causes of stain phenomena, but it is said that the Stealing Damper is effective in suppressing and preventing stain phenomena, so I wonder if it will be safe when driving at high speeds. I thought it would be a good idea.

Regarding installation …]
Before installing the Steering Damper, install the Bracket on the Stem. There are two bolt attachment points on the back of the Stem to attach the Bracket, and some people have removed the Stem to attach the Bracket.:Pair (for Left and Right) The tank side was difficult to install, but the meter side was easy to use and smooth. The tools used were an L-shaped Torx wrench and a Torque socket. Also, my ZX-6R is equipped with a KIJIMA Handlebar Mount Bracket, but this time it interfered with the Steering Damper that is installed on the ZX-6R. I had thought that the positional relationship between the Steering Damper and the mounting position of the Mount Bracket was suspicious before I purchased it, but as I thought, I removed the Mount Bracket in tears. I will consider replacing the Mount Bracket with KIJIMA's Mount Bracket in the future. At that time, I will make another Impression. View detail

4/5

For prevention of Stain phenomenon

We were traveling at about 100 kilometers per hour on the freeway.
Because the Handlebar burbled the moment I picked up the Gap on the road, and I was scared.
I bought it with a sinking feeling that I could prevent it even a little.

As per Review in various places, it is loose after installation.
However, I will say that it is helpful because it should definitely change the vibration characteristics.

For installation, the included Bolt is Torque, so be careful if you don't have the tools.

The bracket is attached to the back of the Top Bridge.
You may need to remove the Top Bridge.
In my case, I was able to install the Bracket without removing it because my Wrench was a Small Type.

I am very happy with the look of the Large after installation. View detail

3/5

You're so weak.

[How is it used?
ZX-6R 2020 ZX636G
CircuitMain

Was the one you received as per Image?
As expected from an OEM, the Die-casting Bracket gives it more texture than I expected.

Was the installation difficult?
I didn't know there was a screw hole on the reverse side of the Stem for installation.
I had trouble with the first one on the mounting diagram. (Lol) The result is an unprocessed Bolt On.

How was your experience with it?
It is more loose than I expected, I feel the effect when I move it with Single Body, but once I put it on, it is Large strong even on the hardest road.

[Included Parts:were they on?
no problem

[Was there anything that disappointed you?
It doesn't get very hard, so I don't know if it works or not. I don't know.
I wonder if this is one of those OEM things where safety comes first. View detail
