Has anyone ever mounted this on the FJ ??
If yes, where is it better to do it ?? I have not found any arguments about it but I need it to not lick the asphalt ... :Facepalm:
Thank you! :bye:
No one has ever needed one on the FJ**. It is a supremely stable motorcycle
If you need a steering damper on your FJ, something is wrong.
*** except (IIRC) Doc Hacker's race bike. He cut the neck off of his FJ and welded on a steeper angle neck for track racing.
I rarely squeeze my FJ but from 190 upwards, at times, it seems to me that the steering is a little too light and worrying ...
190kph =118mph it becomes all about airflow. FJ's are just getting their second wind at 120mph.
My 1984 FJ1100 squats down lower as speeds get higher.
I have never had a problem with air getting under my front end at high speed (160mph)
I can run wfo with a 180/55 rear tire and 18/40 gearing @ 9500rpm (my speedo is useless)
Rock stable.
Ok, grazie per la risposta.

Time to inspect/re tighten/replace steering head bearings?
Also worn rear suspension linkage bearings can make the FJ wander.
I've fitted a steering damper to the FJ1100 race bike - but only because it was required to pass tech. Never needed it, and keep it at the loosest setting to prevent any unwanted weave.
Okay, I'm going to try everything. Thanks.

Rock stable.
I've been called a lot of things, but stable's not one of them...
