Had a question for you about a steering stabilizer damper assembly if you could help me ! I had a small front end collision and in the process of replacing plastics I broke the connector on the sensor. If I’m to swap that out should I replace with an oem one or switch it with an after market, also how can I get the SD light off ?

[@lonelyryder7441]

Honestly dude, if I was in your position I would just buy a used OEM one on Ebay, cost around $50-$100. You don't need to "reset" the SD light, it will auto-reset once you plug the new one in, I just tested it on my bike for you. But, be warned, if you want to go aftermarket they are VERY expensive, $300-$600 depending on brand. Also, most aftermarkets are purely mechanical not electronic, and they come with a bypass plug to turn off the SD light. Hope that helps!

What are the torque specks for the gear position sensor I got a new one ring on mine and it still has a small leak

[@RobertDamien8687]

Found this “Gear position switch bolt 6.5 0.65 4.7” I would just go with hand tight enough to mount down if leaking my guess would be bad o ring. In my case I have erratic indicating in 123. Ordered replacement sensor and o ring

[@lonelyryder7441]

Should be around 3 ft-lbs, but I just hand tighten mine.
