Product Description
GSX1250FA steering stabilizer setup for the 2011-2015 Suzuki GSX 1250 FA, built on the Scott's steering stabilizer, a hydraulic damper. This page lists a complete kit and a mount kit only, each with its Scott's part number. On a GSX 1250 FA, Scott's road bike unit adds rebound damping back toward center, according to Scott's, so the bars are slowed on the way back as well. For these years the weld-on complete kit is part RS-29-0055-40S (about 3.5 lb) and the weld-on mount kit only is part RM-29-0055 (about 2 lb).
