Product Description
TC449 steering stabilizer parts and kits for the 2011-2014 Husqvarna TC 449: the Scott's steering stabilizer, matched to the model years Scott's lists for this bike.

For these years the weld-on complete kit is part DS-4551-00 (about 3.5 lb) and the weld-on mount kit only is part DM-4551-00 (about 1.5 lb); 1 more option are listed below.

Does a Scott's TC449 steering damper kit come with the mounts?

What does a TC449 steering stabilizer do?
A steering stabilizer does for the TC 449'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 TC449 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 Husqvarna TC 449?
Scott's says yes, with a mount kit for the new bike. For the Husqvarna TC 449, the mount kit only part: DM-4551-00.
What is a tank slapper, and do I need a steering stabilizer on my Husqvarna TC 449?
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 Husqvarna TC 449?
Fit depends on the model year. This page covers all years of the Husqvarna TC 449. 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 TC449 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 TC449 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.
