 You are bidding on a  used, complete Sprint  top mount steering damper kit fitting the SUZUKI GSXR1000 2003-2004, K3, K4

This damper kit is mounted across the front of the gas tank above the upper triple clamp.  It has 18 adjustable damping settings and is rebuildable. The kit is bolt on and requires no modifications or cutting of panels or frame to fit.

One of the most technically advanced dampers on the market today. They were designed by a former MacLaren F1 engineer whose company in England only makes steering dampers. They work extremely well, with little to no stiction.

One of the benefits of a Sprint SXC damper is that it does not contain any air bubbles. Rotary dampers are cased in a metal housing, therefore they are assembled with an air bubble to give the fluid room to expand, this can also cause fade. But the biggest problem is that they will "skip" a tiny amount as the damper changes directions. While this is undetectable on a dirt bike (where these products originated) it is the very thing you are trying to stop on a road course bike. You want to stop the tiniest oscillation from ever starting. So the damper needs to work instantly in both directions. Sprint SXC dampers use a unique expansion device which ensures mechanical pressure is applied to the damper during all working temperatures and conditions. They are fully pressurized to eliminate internal air.

Sprint  damper features:

  • 18 positions of damping adjustment
  • Linear low friction seals give consistent damping and feel
  • Visual indicator to alert you if damper requires service due to internal pressure drop (We have yet to see one needing service due to pressure loss)
  • Brackets and damper are machined from solid billet aluminum
  • All parts are anodized for corrosion resistance
  • Sprint  damper kits are sold complete with damper, and brackets
  • Check with dealer for fitment 

Porsche Boxster & Cayman (2008) at LA Auto Show

Wed, 19 Nov 2008

By Tim Pollard First Official Pictures 19 November 2008 09:00 How to improve on arguably the most sublime roadster and coupe on sale for thirty-something thousand quid? The Porsche Boxster and Cayman are a tough act to follow so, in time-honoured Porsche fashion, Darwinism prevails for the facelifted, 2009 model year models. The new Boxster and Cayman, due to be unveiled later today at the 2008 Los Angeles auto show, are blink-and-you’ll-miss-them similar to today’s cars.

Hyundai Genesis, Ford F-150 win awards at the Detroit auto show

Sun, 11 Jan 2009

On Sunday of the Detroit Auto Show, Hyundai Genesis won the 2009 North American Car of the Year award, nipping the Ford Flex by a miniscule nine-point margin. The redesigned Ford F-150 pickup, the odds-on favorite in the truck category, was named 2009 North American Truck of the Year. Genesis beat out the Flex and the third-place finisher, the Volkswagen Jetta TDI, despite being the first Korean car ever nominated for the award.

BMW 4 Series Coupe makes UK debut at PGA Championship

Mon, 27 May 2013

We had our first look at the car that will replace the old 3-Series Coupe ahead of its debut at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show when the BMW 4 Series Coupe Concept arrived, looking like a winner even before it goes in to production. Even when you take away some of the fripperies of a concept, you’re still left with an impressive 4 series Coupe that’s longer and lower than the old 3 Series – and a lot better looking. In fact, the 4 Series looks a lot like a smaller 6 Series and is also likely to spawn a ‘Gran Coupe’ version at some point – just like the 6 Series – which could do very interesting things to sales of the regular 3 series saloon.
