Product Description
400 LC4 steering stabilizer for the 2000-2004 KTM 400 LC4, with 3 Scott's Performance kit options on this page: a complete kit, a mount kit only and a bar clamp. On an adventure bike like the 400 LC4, knobby tires, ruts and a loaded rear end can set off head shake; a steering stabilizer slows that side to side movement of the bars. 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.

Questions riders ask
Which kit do I need for the 400 LC4?
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 400 LC4. Scott's says some bikes need different bars when the crossbar sits too low.

What is a tank slapper, and do I need a steering stabilizer on my KTM 400 LC4?
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.
