Hey Guy's,
All ways loved the Blackbird, took one for a ride a year ago and fell in love!
finally was in a position to buy one a week ago. 2002 superblackbird with 60thou and Black! just as i remembered dead set gorgeous! took it for a quick spin sydney-natio-Mac pass-golbourne-taragla-Oberon-bells line back to Sydney 600km round trip. great way to shake down the new bike.

anyways looking for a steering damper for it any links with pics for mounting positions will be helpful.

Greetings. You don't need a damper. Are you worried about high siding? Spend your dosh on upgrading suspension, if it isn't already. HIDs if you night ride, a hugger is a must, a fender extender, a more comfy seat, risers if you need them. All my 2 cents. Happy riding.

Ventura rack works well I have put foam over the bar as the missus doesn't rely on it but when you give the bird a quick squeeze on the throttle it saves her from going off the back and the foam saves bruising.
