Product Description

Questions riders ask
Which kit do I need for the SM-R 610?
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 SM-R 610. Scott's says some bikes need different bars when the crossbar sits too low.

What is a tank slapper, and do I need a steering stabilizer on my Husqvarna SM-R 610?
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.
