Experiment on the stationary machine before moving off.
The steering damper is a sealed unit and in normal usage will give long service without maintenance.
The steering damper kit will be found particularly useful in restricting handling problems occasioned by crosswinds, rutted road surfaces,
grooved freeway surfaces, heavy touring luggage, etc. It is not intended to rectify maladies in handling occasioned by incorrect
maintenance though an improvement even in these undesirable conditions may well be noted.
