"Active RSC"
 Active
(RSC) (Reactive Speed Control) The HyperPro RSC is the only active valving damper
available. As steering speed increases, the internal valving changes
automatically to increase the damping effect. This results in a light, easy
handling ride at low speeds while still keeping the heavy damping during extreme
situations
Stroke 75
Damping can be adjusted in a wide range, divided in 22
positions. This results in a smooth, light and easy handling at low speeds
combined with heavy damping that AUTOMATICALLY kicks in during extreme
situations. No other aftermarket company offers anything even close, a Hyperpro
Exclusive feature found only on the RSC damper.
HyperPro Advantage
THE HYPERPRO RSC IS THE ONLY ACTIVE DAMPER AVAILABLE
Hyperpro's RSC "Active" valving
means that as steering speed increases, the damping automatically increases. Our
"Active" technology is far beyond what any conventional aftermarket damper
offers, and is a Hyperpro exclusive.
TRIPLE FUNCTION SEALS
Dust scraper and double (preloaded) oil seal, ensuring
that dust cannot enter and oil cannot exit the damper at any time.
ADJUSTABLE DAMPING
Damping can be adjusted in a wide range, divided in 22
positions.
TWIN-TUBE DAMPING SYSTEM
This ensures that the clamping force of the tube-clamp
does not obstruct the piston.
NITROGEN PRESSURIZED HEAT EXPANSION RESERVOIR
Gas pressure prevents the forming of air bubbles. Oil
expansion due to temperature changes is compensated by the reservoir and does
not influence damper performance.
ONE-PIECE PISTON ROD
Providing perfect alignment through the slide bearings
and no excessive force on the piston.
LOW FRICTION DESIGN
8mm hard chromed piston rod with special surface
treatment and special piston ring for smooth movement.
Imagine this...
You are riding down the highway closing in on an eighteen wheeler. The
left lane is clear so you grab a handful of throttle and lean. You've done
this a thousand times without a problem. In fact it's one of the thrills
you expect from riding. Only this time is different. Last week's road crew
left enough waves in the road to capsize the Titanic. Just as you pass the
truck, your front end starts to shake an ever worsening wobble.
This situation can happen to any rider on any bike. The outcome will
depend on conditions, skill, and pure luck. Fortunately you have help. A
steering damper can help control front end shake and lesson the chance of
high speed wobbles and tank slappers.
HYPERPRO Active Control Design
Hyperpro is the only active control damper available. What exactly is
active control? Active control means that as the steering force increases,
so does the damping effect. This results in a smooth easy-handling ride at
low speeds combined with heavy dampening during extreme situations. The
best of both worlds.
Hydraulics 101
 A steering damper works by forcing oil through a hole. The size of that
hole determines the amount of dampening. Every adjustable damper except HYPERPRO
works by simply adjusting the size of the hole/holes that the oil flows
through. The problem with this method is that you have a fixed level of
dampening across the entire range of steering inputs. If you want maximum
dampening the result is handling that is uncomfortably stiff during normal
riding. If you want a smooth ride during normal conditions you sacrifice
safety and control during extreme situations.
Why HYPERPRO is different
The HYPERPRO damper works in a unique and ingenious way. It has
four adjustable holes that are always open during normal conditions.
However as steering forces grow, two of the holes start to close. The more
force, the more they close. This revolutionary design enables you to ride
with a relaxed level of dampening yet still have heavy dampening when you
need it most. Truly a breakthrough in dampening design. No other damper
comes close to offering this kind of active response.
There's More
The safety afforded by the unique HYPERPRO active design is reason
enough for every bike owner to have one. However the HYPERPRO philosophy
of quality engineering has resulted in a damper with a number of
additional features that make it truly exceptional.
Special Heat Reservoir
The HYPERPRO damper has a special reservoir to capture oil
expanding due to increasing temperature. A moving piston (the damper)
creates heat. As the oil has no place to expand it will literally freeze
the damper into a solid bar. The HYPERPRO damper has the largest expansion
reservoir of any damper available. A spring loaded one way valve ensures
that the level of fluid remains constant, no matter how aggressive you
ride. A feature unique to the HYPERPRO design.
Infinite Adjustability
The adjusting knob on a HYPERPRO damper has 10 steps.
Single Piece Piston Rod
The piston in the HYPERPRO damper is a single piece rod. Most other
dampers are a two piece design which can result in excessive lateral
movements of the piston at the end of it's stroke. This can cause oil
leaks and, in an extreme situation, a jam if the piston torque's when
fully extended.
Quality Construction
The HYPERPRO damper is made from high-grade aircraft aluminum and has
special coatings that reduce friction. The damper is also rebuildable from
the piston rod to the last screw.
