I have one but it`s kinda thrashed. What that looks like is a Circle Industries or Webco Fork Brace for a 1970 Yamaha AT1 that was centered up and drilled to fit a Hodaka. Back in the day they sold them with no holes and you drilled them however you wanted. Mine came off of a 1970 100 B that a pair of 1969 Yamaha AT1 forks and wheel were HEAVILY modified for Desert Racing and put on the Hodaka.Yamaha was a couple of years ahead of Hodaka as far as good forks go so it was a common practice to do that back then. By 1971 you could interchange the Super Rat and B+ lower outer fork tubes with the AT1 CT1 forks. My Super Rat has the Webco fork springs in it made for the AT1 Yamaha from those forks. Joe Ormonde.

Hello Joe, would it be possible to e-mail me your contact info, need ask questions on the forks you mentioned. Also beside Circle industry s and Webco there where other fork braces made as well, one that a lot of old timers used had bent tubing around the tire width like the Circle ones and then there where two mounting plates welded to the tubes.
