Product Description
TL1000S steering stabilizer choices for Suzuki TL 1000S riders (1997-2001): a complete kit and a mount kit only. Every option below comes from Scott's own fitment list for this bike. On a road bike like the TL 1000S, head shake often starts when you roll off the throttle and the front end dives, or when the front wheel lands slightly off line; a steering stabilizer slows that side to side movement. For these years the complete kit is part RS-17-1422-50R (about 3.5 lb) and the mount kit only is part RM-17-1422 (about 2 lb).
