    Good to see you posting again Motoman, Welcome back.
    Ditto on that. Based on the information he provided I would assume that the fork question that started this thread will not fit the standard. That is if the sport and specials share the same diameter forks. Brant, do you know anything about the sports that were released in Europe? I know that particular fork brace is the correct diameter for a special, it just does not clear the fender.

      The Sport has a leading axle. I had hoped it would be the same as the Special. What keeps the Tarozzi Sport brace from fitting a Special?

        When you install it as it comes from them it sits too low and actually gouges the fender. I had to grind it down to clear. It fits the tube diameter perfectly.

          cajun31, if I remember correctly the Sport and Special used the same fork assembly.
          81H Venturer1100 "The Bentley" (on steroids) 97 Yamaha YZ250(age reducer) 92 Honda ST1100 "Twisty"(touring rocket) Age is relative to the number of seconds counted 'airing' out an 85ft. table-top.
