Topic: Aftermarket fork brace options for early 750Ks

[timtune]

I know the fender works as a brace but I want to ditch it. I'm wondering about braces that mount to the top of slider.
Any thoughts?

Used to be common but doubt they are now

With no front fender I'd be worried about stuff being thrown at the fins. They are fairly delicate.

Also riding in the rain can get problematic with water from the wheel getting flung up into the electrical parts under the tank..

Actually...at 70 MPH (or more) the water ends up right between one's eyes...

How bad is no fender no brace?

[MauiK3]

I don't think I'd want to find out, might be too exciting.

[bryanj]

Dont want to find out at speed,the forks flex with the fender, hate to think of different flexing from each leg

Seems like Tarozzi makes one that will fit with no fender.

i used to have a dunstall guard ( fibreglass, hose clamped to the top of the sliders) on my K2, which is about as stiff and bracing as a bowl of lukewarm custard, you could look down while riding on a rough road ( so most of the ones round here ) and watch the forks flex a couple of inches at the wheel end and not necessarily at the same time or rate

if you're worried about that sort of thing just don't look, didn't seem to make any difference to handling compared to having a steel guard, and to be honest at their peak these bikes handle like sh1t anyway, if you're after razor sharp levels then try a modern two wheeled anything, most uber delivery mopeds probably handle better

The stock fender braces that were mounted in rubber bushings had absolutely Zero stiffening effect on the forks. Even with the rubber bushings replaced with steel washers, the fender braces only had a slight effect, much less than a proper fork brace.

Ok so it looks like the Tarozzi 22-0037 will fit.
Iwill likely futz around trying to build my own and then break down and get the above.

That number is not for the CB750. Is is for the Suzuki GS750

That's the 24-0037, the 22-0037 is listed for the Honda 750

I believe that is the one I have on my K3 "Park Racer"

I had a Tarozzi on one of my KZ1000s.  It allowed the fender as well.  I’d be interested to hear of a fork brace on the CB750 that works with the fender as well.

 If you think you might want an old motorcycle part and see it offered for sale, don't wait. The next time you look they may be gone.
