Product Description
XC200 steering stabilizer choices for GasGas XC 200 riders (2000): a complete kit, a triple clamp kit, a mount kit only, a frame bracket and a bar clamp. Every option below comes from Scott's own fitment list for this bike. A steering stabilizer does for the XC 200's handlebars what a shock does for the wheels: it controls fast movement with oil and valving you can adjust. For these years the bolt-on complete kit is part DS-6265 (about 3.5 lb), the triple clamp kit is part DT-6050-6265 (about 7.5 lb) and the bolt-on mount kit only is part DM-6265 (about 2 lb); 2 more options are listed below.

Questions riders ask
Which kit do I need for the XC 200?
If you do not have a Scott's stabilizer yet, pick a complete kit. If you already own one, a mount kit only moves it to this bike.
Will it fit my handlebars?
Check the bar diameter and the crossbar on your XC 200. Scott's says some bikes need different bars when the crossbar sits too low.

Does a Scott's XC200 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 2000 GasGas XC 200 on this page.
What does a XC200 steering stabilizer do?
A steering stabilizer does for the XC 200's handlebars what a shock does for the wheels: it controls fast movement with oil and valving you can adjust.
Is the Scott's stabilizer for the XC200 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 2000 GasGas XC 200?
Scott's says yes, with a mount kit for the new bike. For the 2000 GasGas XC 200, the mount kit only part: DM-6265.
What is a tank slapper, and do I need a steering stabilizer on my GasGas XC 200?
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 XC 200?
Fit depends on the model year. This page covers 2000 of the GasGas XC 200. 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 XC200 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 XC200 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.
