Default RTT Steering Damper

I bought an RTT Steering damper about 6 months ago. It comes with a new top triple clamp into which it is integrated. It also has a remote thumb control that can be sited near the grips so you can easily change the amount of damping while riding. The unit is a free to centralise type.

There were various horror stories about the seals not working well and units leaking. I spoke to RTT about this and they said the design had been changed and the problem cured. I have had no problem so far.

So far mine works great and I really love it. The thumb control is the icing on the cake - you can adjust the damping as the terrain changes. The undamped centralising makes the steering retain a light feel whilst having a good amount of deflection control. It feels so much better than the GPR2 unit which I am also familiar with. Looks very neat integrated into the clamp too.
