Fork brace is from Eurocomponents; had to special order it to get polished aluminum instead of chrome, then I contoured the bottom to match the fender top. Fender is for a Sporty. Gaiters are for a 650 Kawasaki; the Brit bike wannabe one...but you've got 49mm forks; mine are 39mm.

Sharkey, what solo seat do you have on your bike? Looks like it might put you an inch or so forward of OEM seat. Jay
