Just finished installing a "Tarozzi" fork-brace. Took 5 minutes ! Purchased from "Fast from the Past" (Jim Hinshaw) I'm impressed with the fit. At $99.00us with $30.00 shipping to Canada I feel it's excellent value.

Be a bit cautious using one as they can cause enough distortion in the alloy fork leg to make the seal leak. When I worked for Honda Australia we saw quite a few come back under warranty with leaking seals only to be told to take the expensive fork brace off and get rid of it.

I picked up a fork brace a while back on flea bay. It was pretty old.It said made in "West Germany"Don't know who made it but it works pretty good.I have one on my KLR650 and I love it as well. I know if you ride in the dirt or off road the brace is not recommended ;)

OK, never used a fork brace. What improvement does it make? Feasible on a ZN1300?
