Posted May 25, 200816 yr Hi there, just wondering if anyone has fitted a steering damper to a thundercat 600. I can't find a dedicated one and want to know if a universal one is easy to fit??? Any help would be appreciated cosI would like the extra confidence in the front end.
June 25, 200816 yr Hi Thundercat should not need a steering damper. I would try a different make of tyre first.
June 25, 200816 yr Author Hi Thundercat should not need a steering damper. I would try a different make of tyre first. Oh OK Thanks. i thought all bikes benefitted from a damper. I think your right about the tyre, it's a Metzeler but only borderline legal on close inspection, especially the sides. The bloke that owned it before me went everywhere with his knee down judging by the tyres.
June 28, 200816 yr a bike will only benefit from a steering damper if it's very quick steering heading towards slapping its head abut. as said a ThunderCat does not need a damper. if your tyre is shagged then fit a new one. you'll think you got a new bike.
