what does a super brace look like

[hipshot]

i would like to SEE the difference, between a stock fork brace and a SUPERBRACE, if anyone has pictures of the two.

i really don't know what mine is, other than that it fits an '86.

any pics, will be greatly appreciated.

Don't have a pic handy, but the super brace is approximately 2 inches thick.

I put a superbrace on and I didn't feel much difference in the handling. They are basically the same shape as the stock fork brace only thicker.

Well Guys,

 

There is a big difference from the stock one. The first ones made in 86/87 were an overkill and about 2" thick. The later ones were around 1" which is more than sufficient. The main difference is that the super brace was a precise fit rather than a loose one where the mating surface on the fork is an elipse rather than a radius. Both super braces were flat on top and polished and had stainless allen screws rather than flanged cap screws on the stock brace.

 

Hope this helps,

The SuperBrace looks really nice. Goes very well with polished forks!
