Why would you need a steering damper!!!????? I've owned an R6 (early model) which supposidly was an animal......bollox it was a ***** (TM Sharky) an RSV doesn't really need one despite the Factory models coming with one fitted as standard...save yer money for some naughty person pipes!!!

I did a 6 hour endurance race on a 98 R1 and snapped the steering damper off! Tought me how to ride smoothly after a tank slapper or two put it that way!

I have an Ohlins I took of my 06 R1, not sure if it is the same stroke, and I can't check as I am away for a week, do the homework, if it is the same then it could be yours :devious only covered 5,000 miles

Bought one for mine as well
You need an SD 175 which has a 65mm stroke, which came with the fixings screws required as well. Took about 10mins to fit.
Hope this helps

Standard settings at the moment, as suggested on the Ohlins web site.
Found that this doesn't interfer with the feel to much, but I haven't had a chance to play since I fitted it for one reason or another
