Hi,i want to put a steering damper on my 2006 zx6r c6f and i cant afford a new one,i have been told that certain years of the zx10r fit but dont know which,please can you help me.

their is no power steering reservoir your hhr has electric assist steering i dont remember if their is a recall for your year know that 2009 and 2010 but gm did announce a lifetime warranty on hhr 2006 to 2008 and some 2009 if your having problem with steering --call a dealer with your vin and see if their is a recall and what the life time warranty on the assist power steering consists of

use the head stock as well

Try here: http://www.ohlins.com/Products/MountingInstructions/MI_SD177.pdf. I used this on a friends bike and it really helped. I don't know for sure if it was an '05. It was close to that year and should be similar.

There are several parts of the steering which can cause a problem such as your describing....If your vehicle is fitted with a steering damper that would be the first thing to have checked....Tie rods and particulally tie rod ends....Ball joints can also be worn out, causing an unpredictable and eratic steering behaviour.....I would also have the shock absorbers checked too....The fault you're reporting is a dangerous fault, so plaese have it checked as soon as you can and don't use the vehicle until its been repaired....Regrds Johngee

they dont self centre. The car is epuipped with EPS (electronic power steering) so is controlled by a electric motor.
This is a characteristic of the car

Hello geoff100lee.... many of the "C's" have a small wobble in the steering at certain speeds...most notable while decelerating... Two considerations that control a front end shimmy are the tightness of the steering head bearing and steering dampers.
Since most bikes don't have steering dampers it's EXTREMELY important that the head bearing is properly adjusted. Your dealer is most likely aware of this problem on the "C", even if he won't admit to it.
There is a fix for it using tapered needle bearings. The bearings are about 40 buxs, but requires pressing and a few special tools to install. If you search VTXcafe.com or VTXOA.com forums you can find instructions.
Good luck...i hope this helps. please rate me a fixya.

The frame mounting points are completely different. A zx 636 frame wraps around the motor where as a zx10r frame goes directly over the motor. That's how they keep the zx10r nimble enough to feel like a 600cc sport bike. But in this day and age if you have enough time and money you can accomplish anything. Honestly it's just easier to sell your 6 and buy a 1 liter.

I would look for a kit from Storz Proformance.

Ok, I figured out what was wrong with my 2005 Wrangler. By installing the coil spring spacers, I reduced the actual Caster angle of my front end. When I hit certain bumps at certain speeds, the front wheels would wobble back and forth violently as if i was pushing a bad shopping cart really fast. Anyhow, the dealer has replacement eccentric bolts to adjust the caster, but they didn’t stock them and they cost over $50.00. So, I opted to make my own off set washers to push the lower portion of the axle forward (gaining positive Caster). If you think this may help you, feel free to contact me at [email protected] .
