Steering Damper Service – Stability & Control at Any Speed

The steering damper is a crucial component for stability and safety –
especially for high-performance supersport motorcycles.
Whether it’s fast corners, hard accelerations, or bumpy roads – a functioning steering damper prevents:

  • Headshake / Shimmy

  • Handlebar wobble during acceleration

  • Instability over bumps

  • Instability at high speeds

At TGP MotoRacing, you receive professional service for all common steering dampers:
Öhlins, GPR, K-Tech, Matris, WP, Showa, and more.

As an Öhlins technical & service center, we perform revisions, oil changes, damping overhauls, and adjustments precisely according to racing specifications.

Our workshop is located between Munich – Erding – Ebersberg, directly on the A94.
