73 Honda cb350 front fork brace needed..ideas?

[73hobbit-cb350]

Hi guys, new rider here..gotta say I love it..so now that I'm getting used to it, building up speed...only issue is it wobbles at speeds I'd say 50-60..maybe more at the 60 range..and I'd have to guess that's not safe. I received a bunch of good advice on here about getting a front fork brace..but can't seem to find one. I have looked around on a bunch of websites, and they want between 100-300$ for something that looks like a pair of Chinese finger handcuffs..are they nuts? Any ideas on what will fit and still keep the minimalistic look? Also is there any special way to mount it? Or just common sense..thanks in advance and probably after too

Look at my build. I just cut my factory one down and it looks pretty good.... If you're wanting something smaller and cheap your best bet is the universal fork braces for vintage bikes made by a seller on ebay. Here is one of the listings: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Motocross-Flat-Track-FORK-BRACE-universal-aluminum-blank-AHRMA-trials-/160883302182?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2575645f26&vxp=mtr
I think there is about 5 or so different ones to chose from.

This is what i did on my race bike. I dont know if your cb350 has mounting points in a similar spot, but its an idea for you nonetheless.

(Pay no mind to the pencils, i was checking tire clearance lol)

If you dont have access to a lathe, you can use threaded rod between the uprights, but you will need nuts either side of the upright.
