Product Description
KLX250S steering stabilizer setup for the 2007-2015 Kawasaki KLX 250S, built on the Scott's steering stabilizer, a hydraulic damper. This page lists a complete kit, a mount kit only and a bar clamp, each with its Scott's part number. It is a small hydraulic damper at the steering head of your KLX 250S: oil moves through adjustable valving, so hard hits are taken out of the bars before they reach your hands. For these years the weld-on complete kit is part DS-4554-00 (about 3.5 lb) and the weld-on mount kit only is part DM-4554-00 (about 1.5 lb); 1 more option are listed below.

What does a KLX250S steering stabilizer do?
It is a small hydraulic damper at the steering head of your KLX 250S: oil moves through adjustable valving, so hard hits are taken out of the bars before they reach your hands.
Is the Scott's stabilizer for the KLX250S 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.

Scott's says yes, with a mount kit for the new bike. For the Kawasaki KLX 250S, the mount kit only part: DM-4554-00.
What is a tank slapper, and do I need a steering stabilizer on my Kawasaki KLX 250S?
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 Kawasaki KLX 250S?
Fit depends on the model year. This page covers all years of the Kawasaki KLX 250S. 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 KLX250S 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 KLX250S 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.
