AGRAS Fork Stabilizer

[CB4ME_imp]

This accessory will almost never come into play during my two up riding, and infrequently when agressively riding solo, but it’s well machined and looks pretty good on the bike.

I got this AGRAS (“The AGgressive Racing Support) fork brace from Takashi at http://www.samurider.com/?p=6361/#itemImage for a hefty $170. Took a quick trip to try out a new seat and this brace. Slid the rear a couple of times on bumpy back roads, but didn’t do any hard corner breaking over bad roads to upset the front.

Install is easy. It already comes assembled. Remove the 2 ends and slide the brace straight down between the fork tubes. It's a beautiful tight fit, so avoid tilting either end when pushing it into place. Then attach the clamps at ech end and you're done.

Not sure what to make of shipping from Japan – 59 hours from pickup at Takashi’s to delivery by my local post lady. I don’t get anything but tax bills that fast!
