So i figured id get on here and let everyone know how the teixeira steering flag was working.I noticed right away when i got it out of the box some serious time and development had been put into it and some top of the line craftmanship. once i got it mounted i re aligned my front end and took off on it for a test ride. This thing really shines in the really rocky creek beds and rooted hills, i would highly suggest checking this out for anyone with the ktm's.

It reduces the bumpsteer by 50% and in my opinion is a must have for the ktm .

I don't believe there is any real downside to this mod. It replaces the stock steering stem flag with a stronger one and with better geometry. Talking with Ed Teixeira, the KTM has an excessive amount of bump steer and he has researched this product to greatly reduce that unwanted bump steer. Mills who started this thread is a great rider and can attest to his experience with it.
