Those aftermarket tags on the end of the handlebar absolutely ruin the value of a nice bike like that. Probably only worth $500 now.

Oh dear me, it seems like it's the motorbike equivalent to a toe tag?

Ultra stiff USD forks and a fork brace!! or is it just the mudguard bracket. Quite a job to mono shock it.

I thought the issue with typical upsidedown forks were most are a lot shorter than conventional forks and that was problematic when fitted to Laverda frames.

Offroad or two-wheel-SUV ones might be long enough for a triple frame.

It looks like they have made up longer lowers, you can see how high the end of the tubes are, normally they are much closer to the axle.

Looks like there's some sort of hydraulic unit fitted to the top of the "brace", with brake pressure controlling an anti-dive system?

A solution in search of a problem... again?

The length of the lowers may be necessary due to the large brake disks.

The brace appears to be sized for a larger diameter wheel - 21" perhaps?
