What steering dampner is on there?  Will it work with the standard Bandit forks or just Busa forks?  I want a dampner but don't like the way the Holeshot one looks like it's just waiting to snag on something/impale small children.  :lol:

I used the stock Busa steering damper (Busa forks have a bracket on the lower tree), and then welded a tab to the head stock.  I did have it mounted to the stock Bandit forks before, used the tapped underside of the Bandit lower tree (with a space and long bolt) and made a small bracket off of the oil cooler.  Worked, but look kinda funky sticking out from under the forks.  I think there are pics in my previous link.
