Questions riders ask
Which kit do I need for the WR 450F?
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 WR 450F. Scott's says some bikes need different bars when the crossbar sits too low.

Does a Scott's WR450F 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 2012-2015 Yamaha WR 450F on this page.
What does a WR450F steering stabilizer do?
It is a small hydraulic damper at the steering head of your WR 450F: 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 WR450F 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 2012-2015 Yamaha WR 450F?
Scott's says yes, with a mount kit for the new bike. For the 2012-2015 Yamaha WR 450F, the mount kit only parts: DM-4765, DM-SUB-4725-04, DM-SUB-4725-04R.
What is a tank slapper, and do I need a steering stabilizer on my Yamaha WR 450F?
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 Yamaha WR 450F?
Fit depends on the model year. This page covers 2012-2015 of the Yamaha WR 450F. 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 WR450F 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 WR450F 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.
