    Looks like the Tarozzi I have on mine is still available. Prices around $100 or less. Google shows a number of suppliers.

      Daytona braces are cast in one piece, other than the caps to bolt it on. Lighter weight than a Tarozzi, but I suspect not as sturdy. The Daytona braces also don't adjust to allow fine tuning of the fit.

            The brace on sale here is an earlier Daytona...the subsequent models have the central piece fastened by 4 bolts, and allow for fine adjustment. Once properly installed, they are quite sturdy & do the job. I have one on my bike.

                I just picked up an '83 750e...

                Do you recommend getting a fork brace? Would one help on my 450 too?

                I like to ride the twisty mountain roads just west of Denver.

                  I think a fork brace is probably a good idea for just about any bike that doesn't have one from the factory. Your GS750E is pretty much the mechanical twin of my ES/EF and the daytona brace made my front end feel a lot more solid in the twisties.
