Description
Chosen by the best riders in the world , walk through the paddock of any major off-road race,rally, or event and you will notice the same choice of steering stabilizer on the bikes leading the pack.
Conventional steering stabilizers like Scotts, GPR, and Fastway all need to have their shaft centerline directly inline with the centerline of the dirtbikes steering stem. Unfortunately this is also where your handlebars are. This causes these companies to either raise your bars or go on top of them, where you could take it to your chin or chest. The Parabolic damper's innovative design allows the damper to be mounted at an angle, so there is no need to raise your handlebars or have the damper in a dangerous position above your bars.
