I've seen on this site that the Suzuki Marauder 800 brackets will work on our bikes. The question is how do they mount to our bikes? I've removed the fork shrouds from my bike so just wandering if they attach to the forks if they'll still work on my bike. Thanks.

They attach to the top fork shrouds. The Memphis shade mounts are adjustable though and they should still work with the shrouds removed. I believe our forks are 46mm with the shrouds and 41mm without the shrouds.

41mm is correct with the shrouds removed

I just miked them. The upper fork shrouds are 57 mm. That is where the windshield braces mount. I have the Memphis Shades mounts for the Suzuki Maruader 800 on my bike.

So will the mounts adjust from 57mm down to 41mm?

No. There is a smaller sized clamp suited for 41 mm applications.

A link to a Memphis Marauder setup.

everything is silver in the actual product]


When I bought the Marauder kit, it came with four clamps that fit 57 mm tubes.
You might want to call the factory [(901) 853-0293 & 0294,] and see if they will substitute four 41 mm clamps for the standard 57 mm clamps.

If they can't decipher what you're after, tell them you need 4 clamps of the size included in the 9887 kit.
