The disc guard is a Flatland model for a KTM. On a KTM, the original guard mounts to a block which is held in positon by the axle clamping bolts. But the block didn't work on my GG.

My brother is a hobbiest machinist, and he built me a mount. Actually, he first built me a front wheel spacer, and then he built me a disc that's sandwiched between the spacer and the fork lower (and is centered on the axle). The disc sits mostly inside the hollow of the hub. There's a slight lateral offset in the disc which allows me to bolt the KTM fin (which was easily removed from the orginal block) to the disc. The lateral offset is required to clear the rotor mounting bolts.

If you'd like, I can send you more detailed pictures and/or measurements.

I hope the system isn't too strong (and will cause something to break rather than bend/deform).

Regards.
