I've heard good and bad things about them, they are mostly for when you're riding at very high speeds or if you hit a pothole, like a stabilizer. It makes your steering tighter, so if you like the older bike feel you may be disappointed.

All the old Harleys had steering dampers but roads were not as good as they are today.
The suspension has improved also so the handlebars aren't jerked from your hands when you hit a pothole.
Very little steering is done on a motorcycle at road speeds anyway so tight steering would only effect low speed and if you can adjust tight on the road and looser at slow speeds and remember to adjust it I guess it would be OK.
