DIxie,Dixie,Dixie. Ive read this before and talked to a couple that have did it. Ive also seen pics of your little blue light special mod. IM NOT PUTTING HOSE CLAMPS ON MY FORKS! The people i have talk to at the races say the cheap way works but nothing like the real thing. Yea its prolly easy and your not the only one thats did this. Ive seen it done a long time ago. If you seen my bike, it deserves better then a back in the woods, corn bread fed mod that you have conjured up. As far as stupid goes,,,, Try E-bay my friend! I bought the Summers fork brace and the summer fork guards for $70.00 total...........Yea right,, im an idiot. Maybe before you open your mouth thinking people arent as smart as you cause they dont, or simply wont do the mod you suggested, Maybe just say your peace and leave it alone. People will respect you alot more and you might get better responses to problems you might have later in the future. Thats what burns me,, Youve told us this mod before yet you insist on cramming it down everyones throats till we swallow. Maybe we dont wanna do it your way. Some of us have money, We work hard! And remember, We dont know you and you dont know us so back off, theres no need to call people names. Simply give info. and clam up!
