Installed my new Matris M3 damper this morning and road about 200 miles.
Guys/Gals, get a damper!!!
The ride on the bumpy patched roads here is fantastic. Makes the bumps linear and stops the wobble.
I'm taking these curves faster and with more confidence.
Yep im teling y'all...i could not believe how instantly i noticed the difference. I live off some nice curvey roads, but they are patched and rough like a lot of the roads these days. Some of the curves you just have to slow down cuz there are so many rough patches. Ya know when you hit something like that and the front does that little wobble? It's upsetting when you've got a good lean on. Well the damper smoothes that out. Like i said it gives me more confidence by not feeling like the front end is going to walk away on me.
Others have said the damper helps with wind also. I noticed that too yesterday as the wind was kicking gusts up to 20 or so yesterday. I felt like that wind wasnt pushing the front wheel around like it usually does. I have to see if that holds true out on the open highway when those gusts can blow you across a lane.
The Matris M3 has 15 clicks of stiffness, i've used it at 5-6-7-8 and have settled on 9 for now.
Beg, borrow, or steal the money from the Wife...Just get a damper!
