RE: steering damper

[Bruce McCurdy <bmccurdy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Fighting a tankslapper (i.e., trying to overcome the head-shake through
force) is usually a losing battle.  I tried this once on my Honda CB1000 and
was unceremoniously flung off at 65 mph by my otherwise faithful steed.  I
could swear I heard it laughing at my foolishness as I flew through the air.

I have since learned that light steering inputs to the bars vastly improve
handling at speed, at least for me.  Now I use mostly my feet and knees to
steer.

But that's me.  Best of fortune on finding a solution that works for you!
