- GPR Stabilizers Review www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/gp... A rotary steering damper for those looking to improve their handling without having to drill into the frame. GPR offers up the V1 steering damper for older sportbikes while providing the updated V4 for late model machines. If you are looking to add a steering damper to your bike and don’t want to have to make any major modifications, GPR will have something for you.

2-3 hours?
It took me 20 minutes.
Just found yalls channel, im watching everything, bro yall are awesome! 👏
I purchased the new GPR V5-S stabilizer for my 2013 ZX6R Ninja 636. I was so excited to install it and start using it. To my surprise it partially blocks access to the key hole, so If you install the stabilizer you can't turn on the motorcycle! I thought maybe GPR send the wrong kit or I did something wrong? I called them and they said that many guys have the issues and the only solution is to buy a new triple clamp for $160!! I'm disappointed. They shouldn't be selling this stabilizer for 636 if it doesn't fit! They wouldn't help me and I was on my own. I'm returning the stabilizer ASAP and getting a OHLINGS stabilizer instead. You can read the comment section on some older 2013 videos and people had problems back then and they still didn't fix it! Their customer support and company as a whole sucks!
I didnt hear you talk about the high speed damping.
The adjustment knob seemed to only vary the low speed damping.
I ordered one a couple days ago for my 07 Suzuki Gsxr 600.
Since this one goes in the stem hole, do I need to remove the stock one on the forks? Or can I leave it and use low dials on the Gpr?
You can see if the low dial settings work for you, but if you find they're too much, you can remove the stock stabilizer. -DrewZilla
RevZilla Cool thanks!!
Thats how my 06 gsxr 600 is both on my forks and the gpr is set at close to 3
my gpr4 came lose so i drilled slightly into the frame just to make sure they wont move again
Can you please do video on installation of this gpr stabilizer onto a 1997 Zx7r kawasaki ninja 750cc motorcycle thanks Tyrone..
Where can I find a tutorial on using the the V4?
Hi, I am looking to buy my first bike and I found a 2007 kawasaki zx6r which has a V1 stabilizer. Is this ok? Everywhere on the internet I see that V4 is the GRP stabilizer for that year and model, not V1. Is it dangerous to ride with a stabilizer that is not made for this model?
Quick question, and I guess it applies to the Ohlins as well, if you have a bike that comes with one stock, do you recommend getting the GPR/Ohlins? I am a street rider with MAYBE a track day coming up. My bike (07 CBR600RR) comes an electronic steering damper. Do you still recommend this? Thanks! RevZilla is the best!.
Unless you're racing and have found the limits of the stock damper, I would stick with your current setup. -DrewZilla
Cool review, my KTM came with a V1, what does the number dial on it do? Thanks.
It makes the steering harder or easier. Depending on where you're riding, you can adjust it stiffer for high speed stability or looser for easier steering. -DrewZilla
hi and thanks for the video .. does this Stabilizer fits the BMW S1000r (single R) 2017 as I already install Ohlins brand steering Damber that I
bought from you lately!
now I think I need to add this one on top for more stiffens !! any recommendations? thanks again.
I strongly recommend against putting two dampers on your bike. Just stick to the Ohlins, you made the right choice there. -Kraus-e
Are these considered universal mounts? I have a Harley FXR. I'm wondering if that mounting plate is universal for bikes that require the V4 on their website. Thanks in advance for the help.
No, these are definitely bike-specific. They are not universal mounts. The V4 for the FXR requires GPR's custom top clamp. At this time, that stabilizer kit is only available from GPR directly. -DrewZilla
Hello Again .. do you have one that fits a BMW S1000R 2017 thats a (single R) ?
We do not have one that fits a 17 single R. Apologies for the inconvenience. However, we have an Ohlins damper for your bike. -DrewZilla

Anyone know the tools needed (socket size) for the stem? And are the (hopefully included) instructions good?
The stabilizers are bike-specific as are the instructions. -DrewZilla

whats the oem recommended wt oil thickness? 5-10-20wt? i want to recondition my gpr v4 and cannot find proper info for oil thickness
Unfortunately, we don't have that information. You may be able to reach out to GPR directly for info on your specific model. -DrewZilla
I'm debating which to get for my 05 r6.. I only ride street, i like the 1 knob adjuster that the GPR has versus the multi adjusting knobs the Scotts has, i really dont think i need all that adjustment for my commutes to work.
I agree, you'd be better off with the GPR for its simplicity. -DrewZilla

RevZilla Yes, awesome! I just placed my order with you guys this morning. Thanks for your response. Revzilla is great service like always. 🤘👌
So whats the diffrence between this and normal steering damper? Or can you have both?
Many stock steering dampers are non-adjustable, while this one is. Some stock stabilizers _are_ adjustable though. You would not use both. -DrewZilla
Will these prevent tank slappers?
We cannot guarantee that, but they can reduce the chance of tank slappers. -DrewZilla
I just bought a 2006 suzuki gsxr 600 it already has the v1 on it but on the website its saying it should have the v4 for my model bike ... does it need to be ugraded or is it more so just personal preference (saftey is all im concerned about) please lmk
If the V1 is already installed and looks to be secure, then you should be fine. -DrewZilla
Anyone put one on a MT07?
HI,
I have a wooble at 140km/h on my mt09 tracer 2016, this GPR Stabilizers solve this issue ?
Thank you,
Maybe. You might also have a problem with your steering head bearings. -DrewZilla
Did you install one after? I just put a GPR on my 2019 MT09 and it's a different bike altogether. My bike wobbled a fair bit before. Adjusted everything I could but still had an issue. The GPR was easy to install and now my bike do not ever offer to wobble. Not cheap but worth every penny!
Last year bought the gpr V4 and its installed on R6 and after one year it leaked oil all over , the O rings are horrible, and the bike is garage kept , waste of 500 dollars
is crossx250se ok for this installation?
No, this is not available for the Cross-X. -DrewZilla
Does the v4 fit in vbr 600rr 2006? And the more it twist to right the more stability you get?
I meant cbr600rr 2006
Yes and yes. Twisting to the right gives you more stability but makes it harder to turn at low speeds. You have to find the balance. -DrewZilla

fit on a Dyna, or nah?
GPR makes specific stabilizer top trees for Dynas, but they're only available directly through GPR. -DrewZilla

I'm curious, I'm about to purchase a 2016 Kawasaki Ninja 650R and upon doing some research, it was highly recommended to get this a steering stabilizer. I found this to be the most simple yet effective stabilizer on the market. However, I couldn't find one that was designed for the bike I'm about to buy. Are there any plans on making GPR making one or are there any products like it that are simple to install (dispute the long time)?
+A. Gaines It's possible, but we don't have anything currently for the 2016 Ninja 650. I recommend calling GPR directly to inquire. -DrewZilla
The V4 is worth its weight in gold on my MT09 . It's very adjustable . I have mine and the 2nd lowest setting and it's plenty to rid of any wobble my bike had previously. Not cheap but worth it!
easy to install? got the mt09 tracer
@@johnnyrotsaert499 yes it is fairly simple. Taking my time prob took 20 min to install.
Hey guys I have one on the bike I just bought (Version 1.0 ) and I want to put on a carbon fiber triple tree protector/cover can I still use this?
It would depend on the current clearance you have and the thickness of the protector you want to add. You would have to take those measurements yourself. -DrewZilla
@@RevZilla Thank you very much for the quick response,..guess I will just have to play with it...just bought some speed bleeders from you this morning:)
You're welcome!
kinda looking for reviews not much around
Hi guys. Does exist any radial steering damper for Kawasaki Z900 2019 ? Thanks
Currently, no, there aren't any radial steering dampers for that bike. -DrewZilla
Thank you@@RevZilla
You're welcome!
I need one for my gsxs and i cant find anything to fit
It appears GPR doesn't make a kit for your bike currently. -DrewZilla
RevZilla nobody does thats my issue. bike needs one. cant be near traffic or wind over 60moh
GPR a much heavier than lineares dumpers. If you are looking for a lighter dumper. This is not the one.
Can you review the ones for Harleys
Possibly in the future. -DrewZilla
Did that ever happen? Considering one for my FXR
No, harley suck
anyone knows where to find a rebuild kit for these things?
Jaime Flores send it into GPR. Go to their website, click service, and it costs like $35 plus shipping to get it rebuilt.
@@freerideadventure9466 thanks that's an option too. Comes up to almost 50 bucks for changing 4 orings and fork oil
You failed to talk about the many out of the box leaks....!
Just traded my cbr for a r6 and it doesn't come with a damper like the honda does. So annoyed.
I'm interested in buying a cbr600rr, what model was ur bike and did it came with a steering damper from factory?
NICE
Nice review, you look like Thor.
I’ve owned both, and Scotts is the way to go.
Sabrefire916 the Scotts has a low speed and high speed setting, the GPR only has one setting of dampening. Go Scott’s
Sabrefire916 happy trails buddy!!!
Gpr stabilizers are alright. But if you want the best stabilizer on the market, call the guys at Scott's Performance Products.
