Does a Scott's EC250 steering damper kit come with the mounts?
The complete kit does. Scott's lists a complete kit as the one with everything you need to get a stabilizer on the bike, and a mount kit only as the part for riders who already own a Scott's stabilizer. Both are options for the 2012-2015 GasGas EC 250 on this page.
What does a EC250 steering stabilizer do?
Mounted just above the bar clamp on the GasGas EC 250, it works against head shake and the sudden jolt that follows a hidden root or rock.
Is the Scott's stabilizer for the EC250 the same as on other bikes?
Almost always. The stabilizer is part 4200-00, and the mount is the part that changes from bike to bike. See the Scott's 4200-00 stabilizer.
Can I move my Scott's stabilizer to a 2012-2015 GasGas EC 250?

What is a tank slapper, and do I need a steering stabilizer on my GasGas EC 250?
A tank slapper is a fast side to side shake of the handlebars. Our guides explain what causes it and how to decide whether you need a stabilizer: tank slappers, speed wobble and head shake and do you need a steering stabilizer.
Will a Scott's steering stabilizer fit my GasGas EC 250?
Fit depends on the model year. This page covers 2012-2015 of the GasGas EC 250. Choose your year in the fitment bar and match the part number on the kit to your bike. Part numbers are explained in the kit guide.
How do I set the damping on a EC250 steering stabilizer?
Scott's says its off-road units damp as the bars turn away from center and let them return freely. Scott's also says the damping is adjustable, including while riding. The install guide covers settings.
How do I service a Scott's EC250 steering stabilizer?
Scott's says to treat it like suspension, with an occasional oil change depending on how hard you ride. See the service guide.
