As the title goes I am thinking about investing into a stabilizer these seems to be the top two. What do you guys think is a better one.

i have a hyperpro steering stabilizer and seems to work damn fine for me

GPR, works perfect, quick and easy to adjust. invested in mine a few months ago.. great investment!

My buddy uses a GPR, and he said so far its been pretty good.

just curious, what's so good about the aftermarket ones? i read a few posts and there were a few guys talkin about putting 15 weight shock oil in the stock ones and said it was awesome. it's on my list of soon-to-do-things-to-do. any opinions on changin oil vs. aftermarket?

I think its probably the ability to adjust the aftermarket one. Once its set, i bet aftermarket and OEM work pretty much the same.

I'm looking at the GPR as well. It doesnt have all the cool adjustments like the Scott's, but i bet i would just set it once and never touch it again. if i raced AFM/AMA i'd think about the scotts

ive heard Scotts is made by Ohlins

i could be wrong.

but Ohlins is good

I love GPR, used it for a year now. However, if you refill your stock damper with thicker oil, it will work just as well as the aftermarket dampers.

ive had both gpr and scotts/ohlins and did the oil swap in the stock stabilizer. the grudge i had was adjustability with changing the oil out. i like to go stiffer and softer for different riding. as far as gpr vs scotts they work great either or will pull you out of what could have been a bad day. it s really all up to what look you want gpr has different colors as scotts dont so once again they both work great.

oh yeah,
scotts has more adjustments too (high speed and low speed damping) where the GPR has the single dial where you set it and go. im so lazy...... ill probably get a gpr

If you have the $$$ Scotts is the way to go:thumbup:

 

[Gixxerlos82]

I have a scott's and I love it. I went through the same decision making process too. I opted for the scotts and have not regreted it.

 

[6_R_4_tricks]

forgot to say i ended up with scotts

 

[BWiygul]

so how is it just changin the oil if your on the ole budget?

Works just as well.

 

[you da man]

I have both and like both...sorry, I'm obviously no help. However, I don't have anything negative to say about one over the other.

works great. make sure you use a oil weight that will suite your everday riding.

Ohlins?
Didn't want the clutter.

15 is fine. You are gonna think it's way heavy when you sit there and try to turn the bars but when you are actually riding, you don't notice how stiff it is; even in the tight u turns.
