I am in need of a new steering Damper for my C50 Tramp. Lehman doesn't list it anymore.All I can find in looking after market are to short. Not enough travel. Mine has lost most of the resistance.
any suggestions?

Dont buy the Daytona kit off eBay

not happy at all, too little resistance from a 7 ? point adjustable unit
Next up a stabilizer from a vw for a fourth of the price. My experience;)

[size=3][B]Proud Texan, I have one complete kit left. Probably the last one in the world. I can't remember what it cost me, I have to look it up. If you only need the damper, I might also have that too. I can (could) get rebuild kits for the damper too. At least I have in the past.[/B][/SIZE]

[size=3]I think I could get by with just the Damper. I sent a PM earlier. [/SIZE]

I forgot your PM...... sorry....... PM returned:cxtv:
Always wanting to learn something new:
Did the C50 come with a steering damper or was it added when converted to a trike?
Wondering why some bikes/trikes do not have dampers?
Is one really needed on any bike/trike?
Thanks
The C-50 had the stabilizer as an option in 2006, years after the initial release. The C-90 offered it as part of the conversion. :Shrug:
I bought My C50 Tramp new, already converted from Family Power Sports in San Angelo,Texas. At the time It only had a Windshield. When I put the Batwing Fairing on,it recommended A steering Damper. Cant even remember where I got it. FPS probably. It has been on about 8 years. Adjustment on end will not turn without pliers.

I want to Thank Jim Murphy for the help with the Stabilizer. I received it today. Installed it and all is right again. Thanks Jim.
I have a C90 trike conversion with a Leyman Jackal kit. I believe the dampner is bad. I have found several replacement dampner, but the longest one is just over 13 inches long. I need one about 14.5 like what comes with the kit. The replacement I got works, but reduces my turning radius. Anyone happen to know where to find a proper size replacement? Thanks for any help.
