Hmmm, I've read that before.  I do have a Sprint damper on my 10.

My ZX9's gearbox main shaft sheared on me and caused a total rear wheel lock up.  We stayed upright.....thank god.

Kawasaki put a new gearbox in it for me even though it was 3 years old.

Does that mean that all ZX9s are dangerous?  Probably not.  Same with the steering dampers.

It's a knotty one, isn't it?!

not bein funny matey, but someones obviously had probs with one of these dampers.. unless you know the fella and know he's lying, you can't just type "ITS BULLSHIT"
there must be some truth, or he wouldn't bother posting it, and calling them up so many times.  it may be a one off failure, but hey, its better to know and not need, than to need and not know eh.....
