Interesting item. Will like to read the feedback on how much this improves the bike for you all. I might bang it a little but then slot that hole with a carbide round tree bit. http://www.cas4.com/Buell/Frame-Chassis/Braces/ima ges/buell-banke-frame-brace-003.jpg (Message edited by mmmi_grad on April 03, 2016) |

I put about 75 miles on the S1 yesterday....glad to report that nothing broke and it didn't leak any oil. That is literally the first ride in 18 months that I haven't had at least one of those two situations happen. Either way, bike ran great and the frame brace is definitely noticeable. It takes away a little of the "character" out of the frame. As in, it feels less rubberbandish when leaned over hard. I wasn't riding hard enough to really push it, but I think it was a nice improvement. |

Early tube frames had some dimensional variability that could account for some of the braces having fitment issues. |

The machinist has the other bracket. Just waiting on him. He has contracts with the Big three automotive for fixtures so he has been really busy. I will reach out to him today. |

Got mine installed this last weekend. Had to bend the front bracket with a crescent wrench ever so slightly. Fit perfect! Thanks Jeff! |

Installed mine yesterday, very nice. Had to give the mount one light tap with a big hammer, and it was perfect. Thanks Jeff. By the way, I got 2 front mount brackets in my stuff, was I supposed to? Someone missing one? |
