The STD steering damper set offers a compact, elegant and technically sophisticated solution for noticeably improved handling of Vespa PX models - especially for sporty riding and on uneven surfaces.
✅ More stability: Minimizes the dreaded "kickback" when accelerating hard or after a wheelie.
✅ Improved driving dynamics: Increases the precision of the steering and optimizes handling, especially with more powerful vehicles
✅ Individual adjustability: The damping strength can be adjusted to your personal preferences and driving conditions using a rotary knob.
✅ Proven technology: Based on the tried-and-tested system of the Honda CRF models (2009-2012), the valve technology of the oil damper ensures targeted damping without impairing normal steering behavior.
✅ Compact design: Significantly smaller and also fits better stylistically than conventional systems with a large, transversely mounted damper.
✅ High-quality manufacturing: Made in Germany, with fastening elements made of high-strength aluminum - perfectly adapted to the radius and tilt angle of the Vespa PX. Detailed installation instructions and all fastening materials are included in the scope of delivery.
The steering damper is based on the proven system of the Honda CRF models from 2009-2012. The rotary movement of the handlebars causes a change in length at the damper. This is damped, which means that a quick steering impulse requires increased force. The precise valve technology of the oil damper dampens fast movements more effectively, while slow movements are less affected. As a result, the steering behavior remains virtually unchanged during normal driving. This progressive damping sets the system apart from conventional damping systems and is also significantly more compact. The damping strength can be individually adjusted via a practical rotary wheel and offers a wide adjustment range for every riding style.
The STD steering damper set is manufactured in small series in Germany by ScooterTec Deggendorf. The high-strength aluminum mounting elements are perfectly adapted to the radius and angle of inclination of the Vespa PX handlebars. The scope of delivery includes detailed assembly instructions and all the necessary mounting materials.
In addition to the superior technical implementation, this set also scores points visually: the slim, inconspicuous design blends harmoniously into the overall appearance and looks significantly higher quality than conventional, clunky alternatives. Not only does the technical side benefit from better handling, but the STD damper is also a fine custom part in terms of aesthetics that you won't often find.
The STD steering damper set noticeably improves the stability, control and riding safety of Vespa PX models. The clever technology results in an ideal balance between agility and smoothness - even on challenging routes or with a demanding riding style.
Note: Not approved for use in the area of the German StVZO.
