I'm posting some pics on how i'm going to mount my Yamaha YFZ 450 CCP steering stabilizer damper too my blaster..
1st pic, I have to move my brake lines..lol
Just for fun i bolted it up using the YFZ 450 mount, it did go on but did not set as flat or look very secure, and the rod was about 3/4" too long. Look at the next 2 pics..
Next i set some 1/8 plate on the frame and the steering stabilizer on top an pushed it as far back away from the steering stem as i could and the rod was about 1/2" too long. If you look in the pic u can see that the steering stabilizer is now hitting the upper bumper mount, so i cant push it any farther away from the steering stem.
I placed some 3/8 plate between the frame and steering stabilizer and now the stabilizer will go a bit over the upper bumper mount, but now the stabilizer base is hitting the frame..
Stabilizer base is hitting the frame..
Sanded the corners off of the stabilizer base.
With the corners sanded i can move it farther away from the steering stem, and i think i can make this work.
But i have to be careful not to hit the frame with the rod..
This is about how close the rod will come to the frame when i'm finished.
