Stevo, see previous post: growell.proboards49.com/index.cgi?board=tech&action=display&thread=1188502693&page=3“The Telefix fork brace just clamps around, no problems…. Dead easy to fix on and dead easy to take off if you want to, and on the NTV you don’t have to remove dust caps etc. If I remember rightly, I got them from M&P at around £80 (pretty expensive). www.telefix-products.de/stabi/gabelstabi.htmwww.mandp.co.uk/productInfo.aspx?catRef=510779www.xs11.com/tips/modifications/mods12.shtmlJust a word of warning. As I say the brace stiffens up the front suspension slightly. When I first fitted mine I had (and still have) a fairly large National Cycle screen fitted, and I found that at higher speeds the bars would start to wobble a bit. I solved this by raising the rear suspension a notch or two, which meant that the overall weight was shifted back on to the front wheel. I had no further problems after that and the handling was much improved. I think that people tend to forget, that tuning suspension involves a balance between front and rear and that sometimes, problems at the front can be solved by adjusting the rear. But if you’re at all unsure about fitting a brace, my advice is not to bother….” Jake. |

Steveo,
Just phoned M&P and they said that they can get them for the NTV 650 94-96. The catalogue number is 510812.
Suggest you phone them yourself however, to confirm....
They may need to order them for you in which case it may take 2-3 weeks. The year of the bike shouldn't matter because they all have the same front forks.
Jake.
