Suzuki DR 350 Front Fork Brace

 

Summer Racing Components for $155.95 part number 0105. 

 

I also bought the Fork guard kit from them for $96.95 part number 010156.

This fork brace is excellent quality and adds a very noticeable amount of rigidity to the front forks.  It is a simple straight forward bolt on but you do need to cut notches in the two sides of the front fender to ensure that the front fender does not contact the fork brace during full suspension compression.

 

 

 I probably am over killing but I was a bit concerned that the notches in the fender might cause the fender to fail during extreme mud races.  I bought this Acerbis brand front fender brace from Dennis Kirk for $28.99 part number 61-4008.  It looks cool and it beefs up the front fender real nice.  It is an easy install only requiring a few simple holes to be drilled in the front fender. 

 

  

I also decided to buy these front fork guards from Summer Racing Components.  They are a good quality fork protector and they look very nice installed.  They help to make the DR look more modern as opposed to the factory accordion style covers.  I bought the white ones for my bike but they are only available in black now.  These are $96.95 part number 010156

 

I was hoping to not only make the DR look more modern but I also wanted to make it look like more of an MX'er.  I installed this Maier brand universal front number plate.  I bought it at Dennis Kirk for $20.99 part number 61-704.  It was an easy install.  I had to drill two holes to mount it to the upper triple clamp and one hole to mount it to the lower triple clamp.
