After racing in the Thruxton series this year with some success, and having a street Thruxton with some spirited mountain rides, here is my experience.
I have raced without a steering damper on the race bike all year. I found that if I used too much pressure on the bars the bike could shake, relax pressure and it would stop shaking. So I have used the shake as a signal, relax. This works on the street or the track, but if a damper fixes your issues, then use it.
Riding relaxed without a lot of input, use your knees to support your weight, this bike can slide the front, slide the back, or both ends at the same time. When you tighten up the bike will tell you, but of course this applies too any bike. Think about it.
