Rubber fork boots

Post by fallingpines »

I was looking to install some fork boots on the tops of my 1150R's forks. Has anyone done this? If so, what boots did you use and how were they secured?
thanks!

I'd posted about the fork seal covers, but see that you may be referring to something else (according to the post below).

The boots would be very short indeed- the movement is short in comparison to an off-roader or an old British bike. Never thought of doing it as the beak stops anything nasty hitting the legs.
