[QUOTE="Mad German, post: 1263943, member: 88476"] Hi guys, I recently got a MCL fork brace as a gift but was a little disappointed with the MCL fork guards that came with it. They are much shorter than the OEM ones. Is that an issue? I was thinking of trimming the OEM ones and gluing them to the MCL pieces to make them a little taller. If I go that route, what's the best glue for adhering plastic to metal? Or does it even matter that the MCL fork guards are a little shorter than the OEM ones? They look like they are still going to protect the area just above the dust seal. After reading some of the threads on the forum about the effectiveness of fork braces, I might just leave it as is and sell the MCL fork brace. It seems there are those who think it makes no difference and those who think they do. I don't have a huge problem with the handling of the FJR as it is now, so maybe I'll just take a pass on the MCL fork brace. Your thoughts? [/QUOTE]
