I've had that happen once so violently at Texas World Speedway coming off the banking that it shook my feet off the pegs. Wheww!!! It ain't fun.

Yeah, I remember that bump..not good. I also remember on my 1st lap seeing the worlds largest wall of hay bales when you come back into the infield....
On topic: As a point of reference CCS, WERA and AMA all require a steering damper on all race bikes. That dosn't mean you need one on your Thruxton or to race Thruxton Cup (thats in the Vintage series).
I'd say that "over gripping" the bars or locking your elbows could cause a lot of handling problems (as well as arm-pump). You gotta have a firm, but light grip and keep your elbows bent.
