Fork Brace?
Forgive me if this is asked and answered, but I wasn't able to search it up. Is there an aftermarket fork brace available for my 04 CBR1000F? The forks and triples are like spaghetti in this thing. Hell, this front end was a little on the flexi side on the 600, and it's the same on the 1000 (except it's not adj. sadly).
Anyone? I didn't see one on the Superbrace site...

hey dave, I think you can get them through telefix. Part # FS99 (but I would double check that with the company...
).
Telefix supposedly makes some good stuff.
I know I've seen a couple people with them. I still think superbrace makes one, too, though.. if I remember correctly.
You should try to ride my KLR650 without a brace. Holy heck, man.... that thing flexes like the forks are made entirely of rubber...LOL..

Nice, slowpoke!
Wondering the same thing.
I think they are, but I've seen braces listed for the '87-89 only. ??
Maybe someone would be able to just measure the fork lower diameter and you could compare.....
I'd do it, but I have a '95.
Do the 1st gen and 2nd gen CBR1000's both have the same OD fork lowers?

Ge , I dunno about this flexing forks thing at all? 
..... from my experience and I do push my CBR quite hard at times , I don't think I have noticed any level of flex that has bothered me to speak of ...
Maybe our roads are smoother perhaps ?
or its in the riding style ?
but ......I spose having a brace can't hurt though ...
