Why to late? What would you for a steering damper? Have to loose the scotts?

Ohlins, fork-mounted damper would work just fine.

[3stripes]

wonder why the aftermarket guys haven't gotten to these already? Mori/dan kyle links, radial caliper mounts, snorkles,airbox, and hopefully now these??

[tarmacslider]

Thanks. What would be required of scotts to use their damper on these clamps a new stem nut design? How about attacks can you use scotts on theirs. If I was RAM, attack, gilles, harris.. I think I would offer a optional nut to mount one of the most popular damper on the market. No?

Am I the only one who thinks that Gilles stuff looks like crap?

Good luck on getting anything to work with them, even though all they would need is a nut with the notch around it and a notch on the back of triple top for the nub on the outer ring to sit down into

i got a set used for my RC30. they might not look the best but they are adjustable and IMO not as bad looking once mounted

I would go for attack triples over these.

I just don't like how they try to make their stuff look very industrial and utilitarian, and it just comes out looking gay. Their rearsets look like crap too. The adjustable clip ons they have are ugly as sin and overpriced too. I'm sorry but almost $400 for some clip ons is f-ing ridiculous. Not to mention how much heavier they are.

i would have to agree with you there

i got my used R1 triples for $400 so i will have to eat it for now

I will have to show my stupidity and ask the question. What and how are these adjustable? And what is the benefit? DUUUHHHH Sorry Guys

This is a new one on me, and I can't learn if I don't ask. HOOVY

The adjustable triple clamps allow you to adjust the amount of trail without having to raise or lower your forks, which also changes rake and ride height.
Less trail equals quicker steering at the expense of stability.
More trail equals more stability at the expense of steering quickness.

pas de touche b. miller as an owner of three of these machines one black eye part on one of them will not matter. I like ugly.
