Steering Damper. Ohlins vs. Scotts
Anyone have experience with the Ohlins 2.1? How do you like it? Can you describe the difference in feel over the Scotts. Thanks

Hi Shane, I believe the performance of both be not noticeably different. The Ohlins used to be made by scotts until recently (Direct from scott's when i phoned them) The one big disadvantage to the 2.1 ohlins is that it is bike specific where as the scott's can be taken with you when you sell the bike and all you would have to do is buy a new mount for a hundred bucks or so if you change brands.
I like the Scott's I have. At any rate you are on the right track, stay away from GPR.
Scotts cost significantly less.
You shoud phone scotts in california and ask them any questions that you may have. they are good to deal with.

Hey Steve,
Is your Scotts a sub mount or above bars? I would prefer a sub mount myself but cant seem to find the info for a Scotts on a 2011 Gasser. Ya not thrilled with GPR. Ive had one sitting in my garage for the last 3 weeks, they shipped me the wrong steering stem clamp and have seemed like jack asses on getting me a replacement. Returning it tomorrow.

Biggest reason for scott's vs ohlins for me is cost. Gpr correct back to center and have taken my talentless butt off the trail a few times!
