·What steering Dampers are people here using? And does any one use a Carbon transvers steering damper(as described in DP)? What did you pay for a transvers?
Ohlins (SD154, fully adjustable and re-buildable) side mounted on the frame.
I'm awaiting a reply from Scotts Performance to see if they offer one for the 03 with clip-ons.
I've got the Extreme Tech Ti Damper from Motowheels.

I'm told that it's the same damper as sold by Arrow, Matris, and maybe DP. It's transverse mount, but under the head tube. Seems to work well, with adjustabillity that you actually notice. It definitely looks good and was easy to mount.
I think the Ohlins side mount looks fine, but the above the clamp transverse mount looks like somebody just threw a bunch of parts together to make it work. Definitely not a clean install.
I bounced some e-mails with Scott and he said that response to the current damper kit for Monsters wasn't that good, so he wasn't going to spend any time doing multiple kits. Personally, I think that's because people who are going to spend money on a high dollar damper tend to be the same type of people who do switch over to clip-ons. Maybe Cycle Cat should look into it.
