Replacement fork gaitors

Post by barney01 »

Just some advice. I bought these in June last year http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUZUKI-GT-750 ... Q8TlpFVNuw
I noticed this morning that one had split so i examined the other one and it too fell apart in my hands.
So they lasted just 12 months.
I have just checked ebay and they are still for sale.
I am now on the hunt for some new ones

Perhaps Baz can get them with his newly acquired business.

Excellent quality. They have small holes at the back so the air can be expelled. Went on a treat.
Dont know about longevity will see what happens.....
