happy trails k-9 fork brace for sale

Post by Jeff Saline » Wed Oct 03, 2007 2:05 pm

Listers, I have a like new Happy Trails K-9 fork brace for a KLR650 for sale. If you have any interest in it I need to get $95 for it. That includes shipping in the lower 48. Outside the lower 48 I'll need $85 plus shipping. This is a first come first served offering and quantities are limited to one. I can take Pay Pal (add 3% if using a credit card), personal check, postal money order or bank check. If you are really thinking about a fork brace... well, I was at one time too. I bought this K-9 model used but in great shape and it even came with instructions. The brace looks to me like it was never installed. I cleaned the shop dust off it and it looks great. After discussing it with a local buddy who has gobs of experience in the dirt and is also a MSF instructor I decided not to use it. For the type of riding I like to do we think it adds too much risk of something getting caught between the fork brace and the tire. And I also don't ride hard enough on pavement to make it worth the effort. I raised my fork boots and compared what I think is the installed height on the fork sliders with my pretty darn new Kenda K270 3.00x 21" front tire. It looked like it would have about 1/2" of clearance. So if you want to give a fork brace a try this might be a great deal for you. Or not.

Any suggestions on where to find a rear brake caliper? Kawi' only sells a full assembly for $230. I only need the body, but I'd be thrilled to find a used assembly in good shape. Thanks, Brian
