Product Description
KX125 steering stabilizer setup for the 2002 Kawasaki KX 125, built on the Scott's steering stabilizer, a hydraulic damper. This page lists a complete kit, a triple clamp kit, a mount kit only, a frame bracket and a bar clamp, each with its Scott's part number. When the KX 125's front wheel hits something and the bars try to snap sideways, the damper resists that fast movement. For these years the weld-on complete kit is part DS-4551-00 (about 3.5 lb), the top mount complete kit is part DS-6065-KX (about 3.5 lb) and the triple clamp kit is part DT-5627-6065 (about 7.5 lb); 4 more options are listed below.

Questions riders ask
Which kit do I need for the KX 125?
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 KX 125. Scott's says some bikes need different bars when the crossbar sits too low.
