Factors To Consider When Shopping For Kawasaki Ridge Steering

Riding Style & Terrain

Your first task as you shop is finding steering parts suitable for your riding style and terrain. If you're a casual rider, focus on mild upgrades that offer smoother handling for everyday riding. Consider performance-oriented components that enhance responsiveness, steering feel, and feedback for technical trails and precise maneuvering. If you're a rough rider, explore heavy-duty aftermarket parts built for the demands of intense off-road adventures.

Budget

Have a budget you want to spend on your steering upgrades. OEM replacements generally offer the most cost-effective option, maintaining factory performance specifications. Mid-range aftermarket options provide a balance between affordability and performance improvements, like reduced steering effort or increased turning precision. High-performance aftermarket components offer the highest level of customization and performance with features like adjustable tie rods or upgraded steering racks but come at a premium cost. Depending on your riding style, you may not necessarily need high-performance upgrades.

Compatibility & Brand

Ensure the chosen components are compatible with your Kawasaki Ridge model to guarantee proper fitment and functionality. Consult a trusted mechanic or authorized dealership if unsure about compatibility. Choose established brands with a reputation for quality and reliability. Read online reviews and consider user experiences with different brands and specific products.

Installation

Assess your mechanical skills before attempting DIY installation, as steering components play a vital role in safety. Consider professional installation by a qualified mechanic to ensure proper setup and avoid potential safety hazards and damage.

Which Steering Parts Do You Need?

Upgraded Steering Wheel: A comfortable and grippy aftermarket steering wheel can enhance your feel for the road and provide better control. Look for options made from high-quality materials like leather or suede, and consider a thicker diameter for improved grip.

Electronic Power Steering (EPS) Kit: An EPS kit significantly reduces steering effort. This can help reduce fatigue and improve overall control, particularly for long rides or demanding terrain.

Tie Rod Ends: Upgrading to heavy-duty tie rod ends can improve steering precision and durability, especially for riders who frequently encounter rough terrain. 

Steering Rack Bushings: Replacing worn-out steering rack bushings with polyurethane alternatives can tighten the steering feel and reduce unwanted play in the steering wheel.
