Product Description
CRF 1000L Africa TWN ADV SPT steering stabilizer setup for the 2018-2019 Honda CRF 1000L Africa Twin Adventure Sports, built on the Scott's steering stabilizer, a hydraulic damper. This page lists a complete kit, a mount kit only and a frame bracket, each with its Scott's part number. The damper sits at the CRF 1000L Africa Twin Adventure Sports's steering head and resists fast left to right bar movement, which helps when gravel, sand or washboard starts the front end shaking. For these years the sub mount complete kit is part DS-SUB-5528-01 (about 3.5 lb) and the sub mount mount kit only is part DM-SUB-5528-01 (about 3.5 lb); 1 more option are listed below.
