Product Description
640 DUKE steering stabilizer for your KTM 640 Duke: this page covers the 2001-2004 bikes and shows a complete kit and a mount kit only from Scott's Performance. The damper mounts at the 640 Duke's steering head and resists fast movement of the bars, which Scott's describes as extra security under hard braking and after the front wheel lifts under acceleration. For these years the weld-on complete kit is part RS-62-0060-40S (about 3.5 lb) and the weld-on mount kit only is part RM-62-0060 (about 2 lb).
