Questions riders ask
Which kit do I need for the 105 XC?
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 105 XC. Scott's says some bikes need different bars when the crossbar sits too low.

Mounted just above the bar clamp on the KTM 105 XC, it works against head shake and the sudden jolt that follows a hidden root or rock.
Is the Scott's stabilizer for the 105 XC the same as on other bikes?

What is a tank slapper, and do I need a steering stabilizer on my KTM 105 XC?
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 KTM 105 XC?
Fit depends on the model year. This page covers all years of the KTM 105 XC. 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 105 XC 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 105 XC 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.
