    My buddy came back with an ear to ear grin after doing the 650 spring chop install on his kz1000, set it handled substantially better and he had much more confidence with that and a good Shinko front tire that we just installed as well as some stiffer rear springs on some old unknown shocks

      Bringing this back from the dead. Did the 24-0040 brace work out alright? I have a '83 GS650G where I won't be running a fender, and just wanted to make sure the brace will clear the tire (looking at my bike they all should). But I'd like it to have a little bit of an arch for aesthetic purposes.

      Thanks for the great info in this thread btw!

        The one I got fit GREAT! Its cast aluminum, there is a higher end company that makes them cnc'd for $150-ish, the name slips my mind.

          Perfect, thanks! Do you have any pictures of it mounted from straight on?

            Oh geez, never mind. Here I thought when you said there was no arch, the entire brace was straight across. Now I see that it's the connecting piece that either has the arch or doesn't.

            Thanks again!

              I can snap one for you this week. Great fit, tons of clearance to tire. I ditched the stock 1.85x19 rim in favor of an aluminum 2.75x18 or sometimes 2.50, to run a 110/90-18 tire. Same diameter as the stock 19. Plenty of height clearance. I'm 1/8" or less from the for legs width wise though, that 110 barely fits in a 175 spaced firm, and I couldn't fit the stock fender. Need to make up something, as I have a bandana tied around the legs & brace to lessen the water slung up off the tire.
