Scotts Damper with HDB handguards

I've been running the HDB handguards with the Touratech risers and decided to get a Scotts Damper. I emailed Paul at HDB and asked him if the top clamp that I had, standard F800, would work the with Scotts Damper and he confirmed that it would. FYI.... the HDB top clamp is a 98x38/40mm for the F800. I ordered the Scotts and mounted it up today without any issues. Also, the TT risers are 20mm and after comparing them with the Scotts submount you can see that the Scotts setup roughly adds another 1/4" of height. This is going to be the perfect setup for me.

The HDB top clamp with factory and TT riser before Scotts install

Looks nice! Enjoy it, that's a great setup you have.

Reminds me, I have a submount and HDB top clamp sitting around that I'm not using... Need to put them on the flea market soon.

Great pics. I've been running the same setup for about two years with no problems. The only difference is my bike has the forks installed.

Love the set up, the Scotts is the best item I've put on our bikes other than the k60's. You are going to love it.

I've never ran a bike with a damper, but I've heard nothing but good things about them and I'm looking fwd to getting familiar with it.
