Heres something from ebay. Not sure how it works, I cant see it fitting with the fender on or even off for that matter.

... also Fast From the Past sums it up nicely on the Tarozzi fork braces, similar to the Micron.

this is a "tweek" brace used on choppers (clamps to tubes) and falls under the "Cheezy 70's Crap" I was refering to in an earlier post.


Joe, Tarozzi does NOT make an H-series brace. If they did, they would sell a bunch of them...and this thread wouldn't exist. I have looked at the other Tarozzi model specs/photos and while some are close, they would require either new billet top trusses made or do not have provisions for the stock dust boots...

I actually went through all the listed brackets, hoping. Im sure if there was a close fit bracket Fast From the Past would have listed it for the H2.

But I did noticed two different type brackets, one with the dust boot mounted to the bracket and the other with the dust boot where it should be, on the fork leg.

If you were to build a custom bracket it seems it would be better to have the boot on the fork, not on the bracket as shown below

I have a feeling that the dust boots in that picture do not mount like the dust boots on a triple. They look like they mount in a recess in the fork leg and not on the outside like a triple is.

Yea, I see what you mean, like the Honda CB900F.
