Not sure many folks have a steering damper on their SV for street use. Race use may be another matter, however, so you may want to ask about dampers in the Race forum...

I think somebody here rigged up a GSX-R damper, that should be *really* cheap if you get the details.

I have a Scotts, they ain't cheap though. Keep and eye on ebay or find someone selling one and just buy the mount kit from Scotts. That's the way I would go. Also, Pitbull makes them now. The same people that make the bike stands. I have heard they are good quality. They pretty much copied Scotts design. All the racers around here use them because Pitbull is an Alabama based company. Hope this helped.

get a 41mm clamp for a F4i and a cheap stock damper from a gixxer and you're ready to go...

Sorry bout all the questions,

Maybe your screen name should've been riddler instead of joker ;D

Thanks for the help. I've heard from the locals that with the condition of our roads up here they are a very good idea to have.

Do you think a damper off an 04 gixxer 1000 will work with the F4i clamp on my 99 nekkid

I ride some pretty rough roads, I can't comprehend any need for a steering damper on the street on the SV650, don't have any expereince with the 1k though, I know a steering damper is nice to have on a TL

The guy that told me to get one rides a TL.

I managed to produce a proper lock-to-lock sl;apper the other day on mine... But I put it down to the fact that I've not got my suspension set up too well at all, and I was doing a ridiculous full thrittle overtake on a very bumpy road, all with quite aggressive geometry. Never had more than a wobble when it was relatively stock.
