    GS1100GLZ/D fork brace

    Fast from the past is a bit nebulous in listing a brace for the 82-83 1100GL model. With the L usually being the red-headed step child of Suzi's I was hoping for some real world users to chime in here and give testimony as to what they went with, how they like it, and which model they went with.

    I've searched 1100G (L) fork brace on the Resources and came up with very limited information.

    Are there any 1100GL guys running a brace with the stock fender that didn't have to notch it to drop it down a 1/4"?

    24-0032 GS1100g/k
    24-0025 GS1000G
    24-0045 GSX1100GK

    Which one am I supposed to go with? I understand that I should have 37mm forks and the GK's had a 40mm, but not the G's?

    Any and all help is appreciated in advance.

    Thank you

    Ask Chef1366,

    I think fender interference is the issue with using a GS1100E 37mm forkbrace on the 80 GS1100L for example.
