    1986 250r fender brace install?

    Anyone have any pics of the factory rear fender brace installed on a maier fender? Do I really need it? I am thinking after putting the fenders on my bike that I need it now. They seem to bounce more than the old set.
    I would like to see where I gotta drill holes in the new fender to screw it on. The search is not giving me anything worth while.

    I dont use them on Maier fenders.
    The bouncing is more related to a loose/worn seat latch, or worn or missing rectangle rubber bushings on the sides of the subframe under the fenders.

    You can add some large thick washers under the seatlatch pegs and it will tighten up the fender wobble, or you can wait and purchase a locking seat latch that is being made for the R right now.
    Should be a few more weeks..They will not even move at all with these latches being made.
    Here is where my long useless list of stuff nobody cares about should go...
