Brief unboxing and install video of the Ohlins steering damper on my 2019 Ninja ZX-6R.
Note: the two 4mm allen screws that clamp onto the damper should be torqued to 5nm (44 inch pounds)

Revzilla says it’s a $1,600 kit for all the brackets and what not... can’t believe this bike didn’t come with it. I just have an m4 slip on, on mine, but I am getting a tune this summer, and will be switching up the sprocket size. I’ve gotten some nasty wobbles on this thing. Once was in 5th gear going about 90 uphill, no hard acceleration and BOOM out of nowhere the throttle was ripped out of my hand and it scared the living hell out of me, I was in a funk the rest of the day. Really feel the need for this before getting the tune though.

Good morning, Merry Christmas. Watching your video helped me a lot, but I have a question, is there an electronic steering damper for the Kawasaki ZX6R?
@TurbineJesse
@TurbineJesse 2 года назад
Just looking into installing one myself on a '21. The Ohlins manual says to tighten the nut to vehicle's specs, OR 100Nm (~74 ft-lbs) if no specs are provided. However, Kawasaki does provide specs for the stock "steering stem head bolt" of 58 ft-lbs (at least in the 2018 service manual I'm looking at). I believe this is the value that should be used, 74 ft-lbs would be excessive.

It doesn't touch if that's what you're asking. On full lock right, the bars are closer to hitting the aluminum bracket than it is to touching the heim joint.

Had 2-3 tank slappers with my 2017 zx6r, and i can assure you that you don't need strong arm to counter it, in fact, the more force you try to hold and greater will be the wobble. The only thing to do is just hold the clips gently and let the bike realign itself. But i can say that this is scary as hell. The damper eliminates the responsivness of the steering with adding resistance. I live in Canada so the tarmac is in bad condition so i'm thinking of putting one. Cheers

Steering stabilizer is to prevent tank slappers. The bike is stable at high speeds but this keeps the bike controllable in the event you hit a pothole at high speed or something else happens that impacts stability.

Howcome? This is how ohlins designs it. However, kawasaki oem accessory mounting bracket uses the tank bolts and a location under the top triple tree to the right of the center nut - which seems better. The main difference between the mounts being weather the damper moves on axis with the forks or just back and forth perpendicular to the tank.
