April 4, 200620 yr where can I get carbonfibre type fork leg protectors. my 06 betas forks are just asking to be scratched. I see miller has some on ebay but not to keen on them . picture on page 52 tmx this week looks okay.
April 5, 200620 yr Ok, if i tell you this you've got to promise not to tell anyone........ Go to Wickes DIY and by a six foot length of the shed guttering down tube in dark brown approx 2 inch in diameter. Cut it to the length of the fork leg and then cut a 3/4 inch strip out of it top to bottom. Cover it in carbon fibre look-a-like and hey presto. I've done it to mine and it works real well but sorry to say I hav'nt got the digi photos to prove it. The only down side is that it doesnt flare out to cover the fork seals. Thats it ive told you now, everyone will be doing it !!! Stormy
April 6, 200620 yr Author Mine, as just seen here, are Jitsi ones... clip straight on. looks great where can I get them . seen the ones at bvm a bit pricey who sells jitsi stuff ,
April 6, 200620 yr The ones on BVM are the jitsie ones. Ebay sometimes has a few on. If not there are the plastic ones on sammy millers or gasgas shop.co.uk
