Author Message   Fastxb12r Posted on Thursday, October 09, 2008 - 08:18 pm:        OK so while on ebay I found this steering stabilizer I know I could make it fit but do you think it would be safe/worth buying and modding????? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Parts-Accessories_M otorcycle-Parts-Accessories__7-Steps-400MM-Black-S teering-Damper-Buell-YZF-R-FZR-KZ_W0QQitemZ2702854 25453QQddnZPartsQ20Q26Q20AccessoriesQQadnZMotorcyc leQ20PartsQ20Q26Q20AccessoriesQQddiZ2811QQadiZ2863 QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item270285425453&_trkparms=72% 3A836%7C39%3A1%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p450 6.c0.m245   Pepperk496 Posted on Thursday, October 09, 2008 - 08:39 pm:        Interesting..... I was just about to plunk down the cash for the GPR stabilizer. Looks like it will take some fab work though. I remember a while back there was an old gixxer stabilizer made fit an XB with a trip to the hardware store. Hopefully somebody knows what it takes and we can use this as a cheap alternative!   Fastxb12r Posted on Thursday, October 09, 2008 - 09:39 pm:        ya well theres tons of these and others like them on ebay so hopefully...I might just bite the bullet and fab it up myself. I am ase master tech certified and been building hotrods for years which includes alot of fab work so?   Pepperk496 Posted on Thursday, October 09, 2008 - 09:57 pm:        Go for it brother! I think I'll give it a try as well. At least make an attempt to save roughly $400 over the GRP unit. Let us know how it goes on your end.   Andymnelson Posted on Thursday, October 09, 2008 - 10:55 pm:        DEAR SIR !!! lol   Dc29 Posted on Friday, October 10, 2008 - 12:28 am:        Good idea all. I'll start on one myself too. Any body here remember the old friction type had the big knob on top of top triple clamp? BSA, Norton,Triumph I remember they worked. Adjustable too. What happened?   Fastxb12r Posted on Friday, October 10, 2008 - 09:23 pm:        Pepperk496 Is this the stabilizer you are talking about? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Parts-Accessories_M otorcycle-Parts-Accessories__GPR-V4-Steering-Stabi lizer-Damper-Buell-XB-Lighting_W0QQitemZ1802772180 67QQddnZPartsQ20Q26Q20AccessoriesQQadnZMotorcycleQ 20PartsQ20Q26Q20AccessoriesQQddiZ2811QQadiZ2863QQc mdZViewItem?_trksid=p4506.m20.l1116 Because if it is I found this also i looks like a older model but? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Parts-Accessories_M otorcycle-Parts-Accessories__GPR-STEERING-STABILIZ ER-DAMPER-Scotts-Ohlins-Penske-Fox_W0QQitemZ180297 015348QQddnZPartsQ20Q26Q20AccessoriesQQadnZMotorcy cleQ20PartsQ20Q26Q20AccessoriesQQddiZ2811QQadiZ286 3QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item180297015348&_trkparms=39 %3A1%7C65%3A2%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245
