Does anybody know who makes a steering Damper that bolts onto the FXR and were to buy it.


And does anybody know what chin spoiler is on this FXR. Thanks

I believe Storz Performance Call 1-800-917-2453 for the damper and Arlin Ness makes a nice front chin spoiler.

This should help-

As far as the stabilizer, If you don't mind welding a mount on your down tube, you could run something like this-much cheaper. You could find one off a sport bike that would work as well.

I have the one made by Daytona on mine. It works well. It is actually made for the Dyna but I modified the mount to fit my FXR. The frame mounting piece is made to fit on that little bar that goes across the frame tubes below the steering head that has a 5/16 tapped hole in it on the Dyna. The FXR has those frame tubes wrapped in welded steel down to the similar place with a tapped hole as well, this is where crash bars attach. The frame mounting piece has one hole for the mounting screw and a bent over tab that rests on the top of the cross bar on the Dyna to prevent rotation around the screw. I ground off the tab and drilled a second through hole in the mounting piece and drilled and tapped a new hole to match in the head piece on my frame and bolted it on. Just be careful not to drill into the frame tube itself inside the steel wrap on the tubes. The two holes end up with about an inch of separation which is enough to secure it well.

As you can tell I had a hard time finding one made for the FXR. As a matter of fact I didn't, so this was my solution.

I'm a sissy. I have the damper attached to the crash bars, I mean, engine guards.
