Re: steering damper.
i have no intensions of buying the brembos! ill stick with my nissins im just saying what other bits he has, as for the yoshis's they could be an interesting buy,Cammo wrote:Errrr, I very much doubt that they're true yoshi or brembo items!rickyb_dj wrote: ive looked at his other items and hes selling yoshimura rear sets, for just over £30, and brembo calipers for £30 too, ive added him to my favourite sellers - excellent bargains!
Cheap steering dampers I have no problems with, cheap calipers are a different story. Each to their own and all...

Re: steering damper.
There all replica (fake) items.
Some of the stuff is of an acceptable quality but some of it's awful, tends to vary between sellers and manufactureres

Re: steering damper.
I had a look at these items and i think that the calipers are for pit bikes and monkey bikes only. And i agree i wouldn't risk a cheap pair of calipers.rickyb_dj wrote:did he include the rose, or was that another separate order?royster81 wrote:from the same people , a 41mm fork clamp and a M8 1.25 rose joint to fit it.

Re: steering damper.
the rose was from a different seller but the 41mm clamp ( NC30 forks are 41mm) was from the same seller as the damper and he knocked off the price of delivery as he put it in the same box as the damper.
cheap dampers don't worry me but when it comes to brakes i wouldn't be buying anything other than geniune items. after all the only thing stopping you from hitting something thats just pulled out on you is the brakes and i don't want to run the risk of them failing.
if anyone does go for these dampers and wants to know how i've fitted mine drop me a mail.

Re: steering damper.
Personally I wouldn't trust anything cheap from the far east. I'm paranoid that the cheap dampners will seize up and send me hurtling into a tree.royster81 wrote:the rose was from a different seller but the 41mm clamp ( NC30 forks are 41mm) was from the same seller as the damper and he knocked off the price of delivery as he put it in the same box as the damper.

Re: steering damper.
my NC30's have never needed one and when they have "shaken there heads" at me they normally sort themselves out once the front wheel touches down again.
if you want one for looks, go for it but i wouldn't say they "NEED" them.

Unless you plan on riding like you are at the TT, i think the NC's are pretty stable, and you should be fine
