Re: steering damper
Not needed on an SV, save your money and spend it elsewhere, suspension, brakes etc

Re: steering damper
If you are going for one then the GPR is better than a rod damper as its more consistant due to the design.
Easy to adjust whilst riding too. Not tried the Scotts but it looks pretty similar to the GPR. |

Re: steering damper
My point being that £250 or so spent on a damper would be better invested sorting the forks giving them better control to cope over less than ideal roads. improving the overall ride and negating the need for a damper.
