Re: GPR dampner problems!!

Do you hace the stock steering stem-front triple tree? I ask because the 05-06 steering stem is slightly larger than the 03-04.

I know this because I had to drill out a billet top tripple from an 03 that I put on my 05.

I would drill it out a little myself and ride on.

I work in a maching shop. If its off by just a hair and its the end of the day **** happens..... those gpr's are tough a little light sanding and you're good to go.
