I've got a Murph's fork brace on my 06 DL650. I've had the forks off a few times, installing springs, intiminators and RT emulators, pulling the fork tubes up and down in the triple clamps and so forth. I recently noticed some binding in the fork action with the fork brace snugged down. I loosened a the allen bolts a bit and that seemed to relieve the binding at least somewhat. I suspect I have an alignment issue with the forks or some deal with the fork bolt at the bottom of the fork leg. I know sumptin not right with the setup somewhere.
I'm going to be working on the front end this week, swapping out springs, checking fluid level and adjusting the emulators so I want to fix whatever is the issue with the fork brace. Obviously, any binding would affect the spring/emulator/damping setup. I haven't seen or read about others having a problem with binding related to the fork brace, so thought I'd post and see what the collective and brain trust on here might have for suggestions.
