--- Quote from: KXcam22 ---I seem to be monopolizing this thread!  I just made some fork guards.  Mine are the smaller OD forks ('92) and measure 2-1/4" OD.  I found some thinwall PVC pipe that measures 2-1/8" ID and cut out about 1-1/2" out of the back. Painted them with some plastic paint though not sure how well it will holdup.  Dummy me made some for the upper forks not realizing they are tapered. Doh!  Cam.

I made the same thing when I first got the 500 back in '95,but I used poly pipe.Its allready black and not brittle,had them on for almost 10 years now!

Nice slide hammer for shocks.  Looks much better than the tool I built years ago when I was trying to figure out how to rebuild shocks.
