I took my 08R1 completely apart to add some race farings. When I took the the front apart, I have no idea where things go back. Can anyone help? I know where the upper stay goes, but I have no clue where the ohlins damper goes as well as how it connects to the bike since I added some clip-ons
I took the bike apart because after my crash, I had to put new parts back on! I wrote in to get help. I needed a little help. I know there will be comments, but please let them be comments that I can use to put the steering damper back on! I have the rest done! Someone said put it on the left clip, but when I put the clip-ons on, the oem clip doesn't fit anymore. Should I have to get a bracket?
bre9853, the steering damper was connected to the stay and the left clipon from the factory, now you have changed bars you don't have the left mounting point.
What you need is an after market mounting bracket that will clamp round the forks. There are a few options available if you search around, but here's a link to one I know works well, as it's the one I have.
+1 I don't get why someone needing help is given shit around here. You wouldn't shake your head and imply he's an idiot in real life, why do it on R1-Forum? Thanks gecko.
