Hi Ted, Do you know if this application is the same for a CMF framed 32mm front fork,?
  Im trying to get a few of these made up... for the 32mm cmf framed bikes. The tubing bender device is around a C note...
  Al B told me at some point somebody had made these up, but... the question of usefulness was at stake.  They look cool, but functionally... can be a problem with the front forks binding under adverse conditions.
   All advice, suggestions and criticism would be greatly appreciated [8D]

Raymond,
  I think what Ted is looking for is the wide '70/71 tube steel front fender brace(as opposed to the narrow '68/69 narrow brace).  The CMF front fender brace is the one that is made from flat aluminum and shoulf have KTM stamped in it.

Woopsie,  your right Ron, I'm thinking about the wrong part.
Im not sure whatchacallit. But it fits directly above the front wheel and ties/links the front fork legs together. I guess the fork brace would be a good name [8D]

Raymond....you are better than me.  I accidently called a 1970 Penton a '69 last week.  I think we all love these bikes so much we just have fun with the POG site.
