[QUOTE="FJRandy, post: 101503, member: 206"] DO NOT RIDE THE MOTORCYLE WITH ANYTHING HITTING THE HORNS!!!! If the fork brace is hitting the horns IN ANY WAY you're asking for trouble. Trust me, I learned the hard way. The idea is to do whatever it takes to get the horns as HIGH up and OUTWARD as possible. Even if this means cutting the inner fairing to allow the horns to tuck in better at 45 degrees to the radiator. If you don't make sure NOW that nothing will come in contact from full left to full right...WITH the suspension compressed, you may risk the fork hanging up on one of the horns. If this happens.....well I think you know what'll happen. It happened to me. This I the main reason I've been telling everyone NOT to use the factory horn brackets for the MB's! They allow no flexibility in mounting options. [/QUOTE]
