R&G Front Fork Protectors

[SANGER_A2]

I didn't really want to pay the full £25 for these - but I spent a while looking on ebay and managed to find some for a tenner. I managed to find some that were sold as "FZ1 fork protectors". When looking to buy stuff for your bike, it's worth going to the manufacturer's site and looking for any other bikes the bits fit too.

I've also bought some R&G spindle protectors and will be installing them soon.

Here they are after I removed them from the bubble wrap. They are slighly different, but it's very obvious once you try to install them which goes on which side:-


Here is the bit that I hate - their damn website and phone number on there:-


Here they are installed from the front:-


And looking cool from the side:-


This was even easier than installing the screen and took me about 2 minutes. Well worth it if they protect my bike a bit more in a fall/crash. I'd fully recommend them.

I dropped my bike in the snow getting it out of the garage. I have the crash bobbin sliders.





The front ones kept my fork leg off of floor and took some minor damage. My Puig frame slider kept everything else off the deck.
Well worth the money (£19.00).

Ooh. They look pretty cool. I'm glad I got them now! That also just made me even more sure that I need to take the sandpaper to my R&G sliders and make them plain!

I had been contemplating the skateboard wheel + threaded rod method. But I'll have to check ebay for some of these if the price is good.

What you talkin bout Willis?

I still have all my stickers so I can remember to wear my gear, not smoke while filing my gas tank, not to ride through active rail road crossings, and to not operate my bike while lighting a crack pipe?

I mean that's allot to remember, for me!

(really I just don't care!)
