I think I'd like a fork brace. Roads are a bit bumpy here....I ride on lots of curves......I think it'd help. does anyone own either of these 2 brands of xs650 fork braces?
Actually I'd like to change the whole front fork to something a bit beefier....not anytime soon though b/c of $$$$$, anyhow......anybody see that Mule street tracker w/the buell front fork?

That's pretty tight!

They are both great. I went with Tarozzi at 2/3 the price.

I have the predecessor to the TKat, the ATK and it works great. A very definite improvement. I've tried a fork brace on practically every bike I had over the years. On some they help, on others they don't do much at all. On the 650, it really helps.

I definately need one of these
Could anyone tell me how they fit?
Looks like they clamp onto the area that would be covered by the fork seal dust covers?

Yes, that's where they hook on. They have a lip to reattach the dust covers on the brace.
