There is a little clearance issue at full lock. And yes, it can be adjusted while riding....not sure if I would want to do it, but I am old.

I run the Bitubo and the clearance issue gets you less steering on one side or the other, your choice which side.

I wish I would have got the rotary type.

The Bitubo does a great job but is hard to get to when your on the move and want to adjust it which I've never had to do.

What about using the Ohlins steering damper?

I was thinking about getting the Ohlins unit. I can't be adjusted on the fly but it cost $420 and can be purchased from Buell directly.

Anybody have a clearance issue with the Ohlins damper?

Oh and the part# for the Ohlins damper kit is J1402.08AZ. In case you would like to order it.
