Did you slide it down as low to the fender as you could? If you look at the forks ,you will see they are in a V ,meaning they are a larger diameter up nearer the headlight than they are down near the fender - they aren't " straight" if you get what i mean from end to end. I had the same issue when i tried to use my second one as mounts for my oil cooler radiator up high, they too small, but it fits perfectly down low near the fender, that's likely what it is.
If it was too small even down low near fender then thats a new one on me, mine went right on. |

Yeah mang that new oil cooler looks hawt , i particularly like the hoses with those heat guard spring wrap.,makes it look trick !
I guess the fork brace fit variation ought not surprise us much what with these being China bikes as well as the brace coming from China ,the Bike manufacturers buy parts from various Suppliers even for the same piece and pretty much use whatever is available / cheap atm so there is a lot of variation ,even on the same model from same maker ,learning to "make it work" is part of owning a China bike to some degree but hell I don't mind that's part of what made me choose one, building and tinkering are what i like to do as much as riding ! |
I would change the oil cooler to have the lines run on the bottom. If you leave it up top means oil will always be in the cooler and can't drain. Especially for oil changes.

How's the fork brace? Any issue with the front wheel fender hitting it when you hit a bump?
Any improvements in steering or anything? |

Could we get a Vader owner and a Hellcat owner to measure the diameter of the forks? Harbor Frieght sells a digital caliper for under $20.
