KTM 1090 / 1190 / 1290 Adventure & Adventure R (up to 2021) - Touratech Steering Damper Kit

Turbulence from an oncoming semi-truck, an uneasy feeling from knobby tires on pavement, instability in sand or gravel; these are all problems that can be easily solved by adding a Touratech steering damper to your KTM 1190 Adventure. This is a direct replacement for the low quality and nonadjustable stock damper.

A steering damper effectively absorbs and dampens force transmitted from your front wheel to the handlebars, keeping the ride smoother and more stable. This can be any kind of force from the jolt of a big rock hit, down to a slight shake or vibration from a side wind. You will immediately notice the difference the first time you ride behind a big truck on the freeway or push the bike hard on a sandy road.

The steering damper has 24 clicks of adjustment, so you can quickly dial in your preferred damping level depending on the riding condition and terrain. Use a lighter setting for general road riding, and then increase the damping level as you transition to gravel roads, dirt roads, or sandy two-track riding.

This kit from Touratech includes everything you need to install an upgraded steering damper on the front end of your 1190. The installation is a simple bolt-on process and requires no removal of bearings, drilling, or modifying your motorcycle.

NOT compatible with 2022 and newer KTM 1290 Adventure models.
