Questions riders ask
Which kit do I need for the 150 SX?

Does a Scott's 150 SX steering damper kit come with the mounts?
The complete kit does. Scott's lists a complete kit as the one with everything you need to get a stabilizer on the bike, and a mount kit only as the part for riders who already own a Scott's stabilizer. Both are options for the 2016-2018 KTM 150 SX on this page.
What does a 150 SX steering stabilizer do?
It is a small hydraulic damper at the steering head of your 150 SX: 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 150 SX 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 2016-2018 KTM 150 SX?
Scott's says yes, with a mount kit for the new bike. For the 2016-2018 KTM 150 SX, the mount kit only parts: DM-4551-00, DM-5969, DM-5969-WC.
What is a tank slapper, and do I need a steering stabilizer on my KTM 150 SX?
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 150 SX?
Fit depends on the model year. This page covers 2016-2018 of the KTM 150 SX. 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 150 SX 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 150 SX 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.
