Try Alba's steering dampener. They ask 159$ for it. I've heard good things about it.

Alba Dampener

From what ive seen there all bascially the same "made in china" dampners. Only difference being that one is rebuildable and the other is not. Also the linkage is different depending on the model of the quad. I have the Denton racing dampener on my DS and it is something wonderfull. Denton stocks all the parts in casse you break a part of it. I have seen the exact same dampner that I have with about 10 different manufactures names on it.

Does the Denton unit bolt on the same place as ALBA's?
I saw ALBA's unit and you have to drill holes in the frame where the bumper mounts.
I assume that mounting is different on different quads.
What did you pay for the Denton dampener?

There is no drilling on the Denton DAmpner. I havent even looked at the Alba one yet. I paid 150 with tax and all included. I went to Dentons headquarters its only 5 mins from my old house.

The best one is the GPR Mounts on the handle bar clamps so you can adjust as you ride.
