Hi,
Just been reading up on other forums and people have different views on the steering damper on the r6 i personally am going to invest in one just wanted to see if anybody has fitted one and how easy it is ?
Regards

Hi Bob
Save youself a few quid. In my experience (with my 08 ) I found that a steering damper will just slow your steering down a bit which really takes away from the R6s sweet , quick swing from side to side.
You can all but eliminate the slappy ti by sorting your forks. If it is still at stock settings try this and work from there:
Preload: 2 lines (6 turns)
Rebound: 15 clicks
High speed comp: 2 turns
Low speed comp: 10 clicks
Drop 1 click on rear rebound and low compression too.
All settings from fully turned in.
This works for me but I am close to Dani Pedrobot in weight so it may come up a bit soft and suspension settings are down to personal taste but it gives you a start to work back from. And could save you about £400 
Let me know how it goes.
