That is the fork brace. it is highly recomended you install that...
also that appears to be RELOAD's fork brace. he is a member here and had produced quite a few of these much thicker fork braces. i have one my self :D
Thanks i never looked up in there and was wodering where this went. you say highly recommended so i think I'll put it on. can i do this myself and do I need to remove the front wheel? it looks like I do (my bike is 09) thx for the info
yes easier to install with front wheel removed
