Manual... unless you have a R1M then you could get the electronic, but from what I've heard a lot of R1M track/race guys have switched the electric out for the manual.

Please note that the electronically controlled steering damper will fit only the R1M. The electronically controlled steering damper connects to Ohlins SCU (the suspension "ECU" that controls the front fork and the shock absober of the R1M). The base model and the R1S does not have Ohlins SCU.
