The function of a steering damper is to dampen or control the side-to-side sweep motion of the handle bars. Tank-Slappers, high speed wobbles, deflection and hitting any road debris should be absorbed and controlled by the steering damper. As well as reducing fatigue and arm-pump. Unfortunately stock steering dampers are usually of the linear type, not adjustable and fall way short of doing what a proper steering damper should do.
We firmly believe it’s better to control a rotary motion with a stationary rotary damper, not a linear damper or push / pull. Our patented rotary design and fluid control is implemented into 2 designs that were created for the best fit and function for dirt bikes, sport bikes, ATVs and Harley Davidsons.

GPR V5 Stabilizer Kits
Dirt Bikes / Adventure Bikes
The GPR v5 is the fifth generation steering damper with two variations V5D and V5S designed for dirt bikes, adventure bikes, Harley Davidson and Sport bikes but is also used on several of hybrid applications. Its compact and slim design allows for the damper to be mounted below the handlebars, out of harm’s way, without raising the bars more than an inch. Frame mounts are machined steel or Cryogenic treated billet aluminum with stainless steel pin, and billet aluminum machined bar-mounts. Choose the GPR Pro Kit option and you’ll get a black anodized machined top-clamp, available for some applications.
