    Default OMP front strut brace

    Purchased from (for lack of a better word) absolute idiot, asked him if it would fit over the air filter on top of the carb and he said yeah, well it doesn't even with extending nuts from the strut bolts that I made. 80 posted just had it resprayed in black yesterday too (will post pics if any interest)

    gutted + p***ed off

    The omp ones do fit so get a picture up of what your struggling with, I had one on my old sr ten years ago that had a k&n and there was plenty of room.

    ive seen some people fit them backwards, for better clearance.

    i dont think they do anything tho, besides empty your wallet

    sell the k&n peggy, and fit a standard dustbin lid airbox
