The postman finally delivered my new Bitubo steering damper from Italy today. Ordered at the start of Jan and they didn't dispatch it until the expected arrival date and then it got held up in customs for a few days. But arrived today and I've just trial fitted it and all looks ok. I just need to tweak the lock stops a little bit as it's kinda close to the tank on full lock. Will post pics up when fitted correctly and adjusted.

Looks like a very nice bit of quality kit and went together really easily, even for me.

Oh, btw here's the Bitubo steering damper I've been waiting 6 weeks for:-

Fits great and all torqued up to spec now. Just wished the brackets were black and need to break it in but I will need to adjust the yoke stops a small bit I think.

Looking good.

How do you get on opening the tank with it fitted?

Will have to check that. I think maybe with the bars over to the right or in the centre.
