For those that have the subject damper....
Any issues with the mounting bracket damaging the powder coat on the frame?
Maybe I'm over-thinking this, but I'm worried about the possibility of the finish getting damaged, allowing the frame to rust.
I've had mine mounted for about 3 years now and recently removed it to clean...happy to find no rust or even marring on the frame. [thumbsup]
It's been through lots of rain storms in Seattle, sun in San Diego and now frequent commutes out to the coast where I work in The Bay Area.
I was worried about the samething. I sent an email to Kyle Racing since they have one for my bike. They wrote back stating it won't scratch up the frame or Ohlin forks.
5 years (2004 S4R) ... no problems here.
Small piece of clear 3m will ensure nothing happens...
I grab some scraps from a local installer.
you won't have a problem. besides, if there WAS any cosmetic damage, you wouldn't be able to see it, because the damper would be covering it.
Thanks for the feedback.
They don't list a P/N specifically for the S2R1000. I assume that the damper kit for the S2R or S4R will fit (P/N: SD154 at Hardracing.com), can anyone confirm this?
