I took the plunge on the DP steering damper for the Monster 1100 S... My other Bikes have all had Ohlins but this is by a company called Gubellini. Anyone got any advice on the Install? Any user reviews? There doesn't appear to be much on these.
Properly setup the m1100s doesn't need a steering damper Money Would have been better spent getting bike set up for you.
My 1100s monster has never shook its head whatever I do with it. Probably the most forgiving bike I've ridden. What made you buy a damper? Genuine question as I've never seen one fitted to a 1100.
usually there is arm/bracket that attaches to the lock barrel screws and another arm/ bracket that attaches the dampser body to the top clamp is yours like this?
That is the one I ordered. It arrived today so will check the kit out this week and make sure it's all there. To answer your question about what made me buy it. I like modding bikes, saw it on ebay for a great price so clicked the buy it now! That's pretty much how the story goes with all my purchases.
Quick Update. I sent the damper off for new seals and a service. FG Gubellini offer a seal kit for 30 Euros or a service for 90 Euros. I'd imangine it's quite a messy job to do. It's back now and ready to fit. Will report back once installed.
