Product Description
YZ 250 steering stabilizer kits for the 1994-1995 Yamaha YZ 250: Scott's Performance lists a complete kit, a mount kit only, a frame bracket and a bar clamp for this bike, so you can buy the whole setup or only the parts you need. When the YZ 250's front wheel hits something and the bars try to snap sideways, the damper resists that fast movement. For these years the weld-on complete kit is part DS-4551-00 (about 3.5 lb), the top mount complete kit is part DS-6260 (about 3.5 lb) and the weld-on mount kit only is part DM-4551-00 (about 1.5 lb); 3 more options are listed below.

Questions riders ask
Which kit do I need for the YZ 250?
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 YZ 250. Scott's says some bikes need different bars when the crossbar sits too low.

What does a YZ 250 steering stabilizer do?
When the YZ 250's front wheel hits something and the bars try to snap sideways, the damper resists that fast movement.
Is the Scott's stabilizer for the YZ 250 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.

What is a tank slapper, and do I need a steering stabilizer on my Yamaha YZ 250?
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 YZ 250?
Fit depends on the model year. This page covers 1994-1995 of the Yamaha YZ 250. 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 YZ 250 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 YZ 250 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.
