Okay, the last steering damper I had involved Ferodo discs on a rod going through the steering stem topped off with a big Bakelite Knob for adjustment.

I'll suggest another approach though. What tyres are you using and what sections?
I know you started with a 600 but can't imagine you're still on 600 wheels and tyre sizes?
I do notice that my 900ie weaves a bit on the white lines when overtaking with spirit, but this is always down to the tyres getting worn. Even a hard to find flat on the rear will start the wobble off, around the 4000/5000 mile mark.

Bridgestone BT023 GT seem to be holding their profile well after nearly 7000 miles and no sign of white-lining, but not on a Monster in this case.
I will be fitting BT023 on the Monster next though. (But not the GT version, which is for heavyweights.)
