The damper and mounting look good...............but it seems as though your forks don't come thru enough ?

Scotts Damper on Rizoma Clipons
2
Well it took some doing, but I got the damper that came on my track bike set up on the duc....
The bars I have preclude me from using the kit as-is, although, if that were the case, I think the damper would sit up too high and interfere with my line-of-sight to the instruments. Not that big of a deal, really, but it would look odd.
I had to machine the nipple off the ignition mount point, shorten the pin and shorten the plastic washer...
Here's how it looks with the damper mounted

And without, you can see where I machined the mount. We considered many ways of making it fit with these bars, but this was the best option, and you don't lose anything in strength as the pin bearing surface in the piece doesn't change.

So that's that....next project.....
