Fork brace

Spindly GS500E fork stanchions and a single huge 320mm GSX-R1000 disk grabbed by a 6-pot caliper means sharp left turns once you apply the brakes ;-)
To keep things under control I designed a fork brace that will also hold the front mudguard.
I designed the brace in AutoCAD and stuck the drawing and .dxf file on the news page.


Mark from Manic Motorcycles took on the job a while later it turned up in my mailbox.
The anoraks may remember this mudguard, the first incarnation of my 7/11 carried and orange/yellow paintjob.
The brace fits like a dream and looks great.

Thanks to Mark from Manic Motorcycles for realising my ideas!

I'm really glad I didn't fuck up my measurements this time ;-)
