New Ohlins rotary damper design

Does anyone have any experience with this new damper. I'm not sure it would fit with our top triple clamp design and our key housing placement. It is a sweet design though with a charged design and a return to center adjustment/setting. It is a sub mount design that mounts straight to the top of the steering/triple clamp nut.

It doesn't appear to be dimensionally much different than this one - http://www.ducati.com/shop/product.j...id=prod1220104
But just a look in a picture can be deceiving I suppose.

Its arm looks like it would contact the part on our upper triple clamp that works with the steering lock mechanism that pops out when we lock our key. Looks like it would have to be redesigned with a longer arm and hookup like the other scotts with the two studs on the key assembly.
