    Fork Brace for sale

    I have a fork brace, not sure who made it because its painted flat black. It fits on a xs1100 78-83 this will not fit on a special. Thats what I was told when I bought it. so it is no use to me. would trade for one that fits a special or will sell outrite for $75.00 plus shipping.

            Sorry but it looks pretty much like a black blob in the pics. I am looking for one in particular that would need a much better pic. Some reference to the manufacturer or some like info would be good.

                  will try to get better pics, camera I have is a cheap vivitar. and I don't have a history on it, bought it for my trike I am building with a special front end. Was told it came off a special, but I would have to lower the fender by almost 1 1/2 to make it work.

                      That's a Telefix brace or a knock-off of their style. The genuine article has 'Telefix - Germany' lightly cast into the underside of the brace cross-piece.
