Questions riders ask
Which kit do I need for the FE 501?
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 FE 501. Scott's says some bikes need different bars when the crossbar sits too low.

What does a FE501 steering stabilizer do?
Husaberg FE 501 riders fit a steering stabilizer to calm head shake in whoops, ruts and rocky sections without changing anything else on the bike.
Is the Scott's stabilizer for the FE501 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.

What is a tank slapper, and do I need a steering stabilizer on my Husaberg FE 501?
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 Husaberg FE 501?
Fit depends on the model year. This page covers all years of the Husaberg FE 501. 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 FE501 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 FE501 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.
