    Fork Brace $45 Shipped to US

    This came off my xs1100 81 special. The bike was destroyed in the Sandy Hurricane. I was hoping to find another 81 it won't fit anything I have.
    I will ship it anywhere in the US If interested PM me.

      It should fit the Venturer with just some extra fender clearance.

          Hi Greg,
          The Venturer has Standard forks which I think are slightly bigger ?
          I thought all Specials had the same forks ?
          As Gordon has a Venturer and says it does not fit anything other than 81 Special....I am intrigued.

              As far as I know the dimensions for mounting the brace are the same, the Special just requires more clearance for the fender.

              I could be wrong though. Crazy Steve might know for sure.

                  Will it fit a 79 special? If so, I will buy it.

                      The Standard fork legs are slightly larger at the top where the fork brace mounts. A brace for the Standard will not fit the Special fork legs, and vice versa.

                          I happen to know for sure all special forks are the same. It'll fit your SF.
