It is sold without a vehicle-specific mount. Where Öhlins offers a dedicated kit for your motorcycle, that kit is usually the simpler route.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot tied to one motorcycle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlackline finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eÖhlins SD 008\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting length min\/max 34,5\/231,5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStroke 68 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow It Works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe adjuster range is wide enough to cover a light naked bike and a heavy sports tourer. Weight at the front, tyre profile and fork setup all influence how much damping a bike needs. Fitting position is a trade-off between protection, access to the adjuster and full stroke. Road riders tend to run fewer clicks than racers, because comfort at low speed matters more. On a track bike the damper is often set firmer than on a road machine used at lower speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUniversal parts are the right choice when no model-specific Öhlins unit exists. The mounting length at both ends of the stroke must fall within the unit's range. Where a dedicated Öhlins mount exists for your model, we will point it out. Because the unit is universal, there is no vehicle list — the dimensions are what count. A damper with 68 mm of stroke that runs out of travel will limit steering lock — measure first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSetup and Service\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStroke has to match the full steering lock; a damper that bottoms out limits the turning circle. Checking the mounting bolts is part of every service, because loose brackets cost damping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoad approval: a universal steering damper carries no vehicle-specific approval. Whether an individual inspection is required depends on the motorcycle and the mounting — ask us before ordering if the bike is registered for the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and Setup Service\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs an authorised Öhlins service centre we fit the unit, set it up for your riding and take care of later service.
