Wanted Superbrace for ST1100

I have one on my 2000 from years ago. I would say it handles just a little better on that bike than on the 94. I doubt anyone is going to have one but it’s worth a search (and Superbrace doesn’t make them any longer). The 94 handles just fine but every little bit of extra stiffness is worth it in terms of handling.
 
A good front end alignment will likely do more than adding a brace, which could theoretically hurt.

The assumption being the front in is out of alignment and to a significant degree in the first place.

Or which could theoretically help. Some people are of the opinion that there's no way they can help. Others seem to have add a positive experience. I'd like to see a high speed camera of a couple of different years of ST (I don't know if fork tube construction has changed over model years) before and after a front end alignment and a front end alignment with a fork brace.

For the 1100s we could start by removing the fork brace under the fender. My V65 Sabre had one over the top of the fender. I don't remember if my VF1000 had one.
 
The forks (and triple tree) are different on the '96 and newer ABS II.

I think all other ST1100 models are the same.

If it’s an original Superbrace and in decent shape, I’ll take it- how much do you want for it (and include like $15 -20 for shipping to South Carolina, 29579)?

Tell me how to pay in a PM- I’m good with a check sent to you and wait til it clears, or PayPal works as well. Whatever your choice.
