So I come out of the races Sat night, unlock the front forks and push handlebars straight. Metal cracking sound. Female threaded rod bearing on end of damper cracked in two. And with only 134,000 miles on it. I figured out type and size. Hardware stores and auto parts useless. HD closed for Sun-Mon. Got through to more distant one. Don’t stock just that part and have full damper on back order for over $500. Mon morning I called original mfg. Ohlins USA. The End Eye and bearing were cheaper than the overnight shipping costs and they pressed parts together for me. Arrived Tues morning. Installed perfectly. When talking on phone, they mentioned how HD had come to them and damper was just a “bandaid” for steering issues with original design. Shocker. Note HD s/n is marked large on damper, Ohlins s/n is tiny on side.
