B01314-01
The steering damper suppresses shocks to the steering arising from acceleration on uneven
ground at high speed or when the load is temporarily taken from the front wheel.
The steering damper is adjusted to suit the riding style and the road conditions. For high
speeds, a setting with high damping can be chosen to make the best possible use of the
steering damper function. In slow, tight bends, intensive damping can negatively affect
handling and steering precision, so the damping should be set to low.
