I have heard people siniging praises to the use of fork braces on other forums. They apparently help tighten up the front ends handling in corners and with very windy conditions. Anyone feel that the 500 trio would benefit from one of these?

Don't waste your money.

If you want better front suspension, invest in some gold valves instead.

I've used fork braces on multiple bikes before. This bike is light, I'm not so
light any more, and I found no need for fork bracing.

My former bikes include Hawk 650, Ducati 916, Yamaha R1 and FJR, and
most recently Honda RC51.
