Had one on one of my bikes. It's NO LONGER on the bike, as it does NOT work well. I had a TKat brace on one bike, and that one on another, and tried to flex the front forks with both of them. The TKat didn't move, that one moved almost as much as NOT having it on.
Just a thought if you are planning on it working well.Ray Matteis

The one I have on my SG actually came off of a set of XS650 forks.It's black though.
Mine seems to work quite well. I noticed a HUGE difference in the handling after I installed it.Greg

Well all I really want to know is who made the damn thing so I can put it on my list of accessories for the insurance papers.
