Like most of you, when it's too cold to ride, it's warm enough to modify. I bought a Sprint damper off of eBay the other week and it finally came in yesterday. I've never experienced any head-shake on the VTR so I had no other reason to buy it than to buy it because I didn't have one. The Sprint damper has a great range of adjustment... 14 positions, the 14th making it extremely difficult to turn the bars. It does stick out quite a bit when the bars are at full right lock, but it does not interfere with anything.

 

LOL. Admitting you have problem is the first step towards recovery I still don't think I have a problem.

 

SO, does this dampener make anything other than your steering wet?

 

No idea what you are referring too... It might have something to do with your custom undertail exuast & intergrated turnsignals though.

 

the difference between a damper and a dampener, one slows movement and the other makes things wet.

It is a very common mistake, and when you think of it, it is funny.

 

Yes, I know what you were referring to... I was just being a smartass.

 

As was I

 

Well we never had winter and I still don't have any money. S'pose to be in the 80's tomorrow. It has been damper this year though.

 

ooooooo,
Maybe more damp? You can be a damper, and weather can as well. But it means to ruin the mood or proceedings, like the rain was a damper on the party. But you cant say that this year is damper than last in describing the amount of rainfall. Well, you can say it, but it doesn't make a whole lot of sense. HAHAHAHAHAH, I am totally jacking this thread and becoming a damper.

 

If I understand the er... thrust of this thread,

It sticks out quite a bit at full 'lock'. Secret code to get past the nanny filter?

The more slowly a movement becomes it's because it is more damp? Almost counter-intuitive. Oh, I get it, 'Newspeak', it is a brave new world.
