There is an annoying creaking sound where the two separate parts connect—the one facing the handlebars and the one facing the chassis. It is quite rigid, which is good, but even at setting 5 (for city riding), a slightly abrupt movement causes the top and bottom brackets to start bending! Clearly, my expectations were too high! I wonder how well this whole structure would hold up in an actual emergency situation! I have serious doubts...
Bought this damper for my GSX-S 1000 and I’m honestly really happy with it. Shipping to Bahrain was pretty quick and everything arrived safely. Installation was easy and it fits the bike perfectly. The quality feels great and it’s definitely a nice upgrade. Also, big thanks to Mr. Edward for being very helpful and supportive throughout the process. Really appreciate the help and support. Thanks again!
Hi Salman, we're thrilled to hear you're happy with the MaxRacing MAX20 Steering Damper! Thank you for sharing your experience and for recognizing Mr. Edward's support. Enjoy your ride and thanks for choosing Hauer Imports!
Its brilliant steering damper, max racing for the win
Simply a super high-quality product that fits perfectly to the model and year. No need to do any tricks, no need to ruin the motorcycle. A product that saves lives and every rider must recognize this super critical product. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👍👍👍👍
So far, glad I purchased. My bike had a bad tank slapper, very scary. This should resolve without hindering slow speed handling.
Only complaint is the knob is a bit hard to turn with gloves on for my application, would be better if the knob was taller. But works and looks great
Great product with high quality finish and easy to install. Makes the bike like it should always been, stable and comfortable. Very easy to adjust the stiffness on the fly. Fast shipping to Finland.
It would be a five stars review if you had installation instructions. I don't want to scare readers, it's not a difficult task, I'm just pointing out that a product of this price MUST have installation instructions.
Otherwise, very good quality and so much effective, just changing your ride experience for ever!
Damper came very fast. Looks very good and perfect quality.
Just received my MaxRacing steering damper for my Z900Rs. Love it!!! These are made to order so it takes about 3 weeks. Upon order they issued a tentative ship date and they hit it right on the money!! Great fit and finish and 100% satisfied. Fantastic price too!!! Thank you very much!!!
Perfect 👌
Looks as good as it works. Worth the price. Shipping was reasonable for international. Would buy from max racing again anytime. Gracias.
This steering stabiliser is perfect, sorts out all the wobble at higher speeds. Very easy to fit, comes with instructions and on this model and dimensions of what needs modifying. Perfect item and high recommend!!
Very well made damper and very easy to fit!
A link to install for the particular bike , just installed so far so good
I am very satisfied with both the service and the product. Much better than I expected.
Fits 2026 Gsxs1000 perfectly, love ❤️❤️❤️
Quality product. Does what it’s supposed to do
Perfect quality and decent price
Took longer than expected and then when i get it i find out you have to cut the ignition cover for it to work. They offered to refund me the cost of a new cover from amazon but amazon doest have the ignition cover in black with red decals for the 25 z650. Customer service has been awesome tho. This is a great company but i wish more info was given about the item. Especially the part saying you have to cut plastic.
Great product well made. Works really well, tranformed the handling on my Z1000sx. It was delivered in good time just over 7days to the UK. recommended part Thanks
