So, what benefit does a Steering Damper actually have?

Every motorcycles has suspension to help you control the up and down movements of your front wheel. Well, a steering damper does a similar thing, it helps you control the side to side motion of the front wheel by dampening sharp or sudden hits that may want to turn y our front wheel and send you in an unintended direction. So over the years we commonly explain to people that a damper provides "sideways suspension". This enables a smoother, safer ride and reduc es over fatigue.

FAQ & MORE

What is Active Return To Centre Technology (ARTC) and how does it work?

Unique to MSC Moto, Active Return To Centre Technology is a ful ly dynamic internal adjuster which controls the return to center circuit by actively reducing the damping as much as a rider needs to get back to center at the speed they turn the handlebars.

This means the faster the rider tries to get the bike back to a straight line the more the RTC will be released. Having this system means that when the rider wants to keep a straight line at high speed they get the benefit of a damper that has full damping on RTC wh ile in tight trees the feeling is more like having a fully controlled zero RTC system.

How high will the DownUnder Steering Damper Mount raise my handlebars?

On a KTM it will raise the bars 25mm while on some other models like a Yamaha, it may go up 30mm because of how far the steering stem protrudes through the trip le clamp.

MSC produce a Top-Mount Steering Damper with a bar pad include d which is the ideal solution if you dont want to raise the height of your handlebars.

How often do I need to service my steering damper?

Servicing is dependent on many elements such as how much you ri de, the terrain you commonly ride, etc. We recommend servicing the damper at the sa me frequency you would get your suspension serviced, which is usually once a year. In some case s customers go on to use MSC dampers for up to 5 years without any servicing, howver this is n’t something we reccomend as the oil will not be perform the way it should be after this amount of time.
