The steering damper just keeps the front end from slapping around. It's not totally needed unless you're pushing the bike pretty hard. Oh I was a little bit freaked out when it was happening!
It's from accelerating and the front gets a bit light while it tracks the grooves in the asphalt. Once it does that it bounces the wheel around side to side creating a tank slapper. I had the stock steering damper then, now I have upgraded to a Matris M4R damper that works awesome.
So the dampers keep the bike from doing the twist? (Asking because I want to get one I have my license just not the bike and I'm gonna take the advanced rider courses when I get it, no squid here either) By the way Nice, you kept your cool the whole time, if it were me I would've pooped a little :D
please please please repost this video with the original sound of the bikes an not a song......

Why did the bike start wiggling around like that during the last straight?
