16 position racing quality steering dampers, which include precise model specific brackets and billet aluminum clamps to mount them on frame and fork. The purpose of a steering damper is to dampen oscillations in the front fork assembly (also known as "head shake") when the front wheel is deflected from its normal track by bumps, frame flex, tire reaction, etc. The amount of damping force can be adjusted by turning the knob on the end of the damper shaft.
