749 Dark steering damper adaptor?

Hey guys, been away from the forums for about a year and a half. Anyways, I was wondering where you can get the steering damper adaptor for the 749 dark? Seeing as how it doesn't have the welded bung on the frame. Anybody know? Price?
Thaks, Nik.

i forget who makes it, but yes you can get a bolt on frame mount. if i remember it was a bit pricey, like $400ish for the mount

I got one for mine. It has a damper and the frame mounting "adapter". $514 but you get 10% off for being a forum member. Call Randy and negotiate...

Ducati sells a steering damper kit that bolts to the frame (same spot as the welded mount) for about $120. Then you'll need to get an Ohlins kit for the 749 series... I have one on my race bike and it is solid and strong.
