Damper for my 06 that doesn't require frame drilling?

[mrbinkels]

I know there's alot of topics on the forum about steering dampers but I need specific information.


I want a damper that requires NO drilling into the frame. Can you guys provide a list of manufacturers for me please. I would appreciate it.

I agree with the Ohlins choice, but I have yet to see any pictures or instructions from the other three that would prove they require no drilling into the frame.

I would like to order a gpr if in fact there is no drilling required. Thanks for the input.

I emailed GPR and this is what the said,


"$450.00. All or our kits are 100% bolt on and include a full lifetime service warranty".

If i'm not mistaken it's connected at the fork bolt there on the upper clamp.

i had to drill out the frame on the 06 R1, and it was very simple to do. it was for a pitbull, but what a solid mount it is.
