FAQs

Will these fit all motorcycle forks?

No, these are designed for specific fork types. Please verify your bike's model and fork specifications against the part number 716.09.82.

Do I need special tools to install them?

Generally, basic hand tools such as a screwdriver or hex key are sufficient for installation depending on your motorcycle's specific mounting hardware.

Can these be painted?

While the plastic accepts paint, it is not recommended as off-road debris will likely chip the paint quickly.

How often should I clean behind the guards?

It is recommended to clean behind them after every ride in muddy or sandy conditions to prevent grit buildup.

Do these protect the actual fork seals?

They protect the fork tubes, which in turn helps keep the seals clean and prevents them from being damaged by debris traveling up the tube.

Troubleshooting

Guards are rattling or vibrating

Check that all mounting bolts are tightened to specification and ensure no debris is stuck between the guard and the fork tube.

Guard is rubbing against the fork tube

Verify the alignment and ensure the guard is not twisted; ensure the mounting hardware is seated correctly in the fork lugs.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents scratches and pitting on fork tubes
  • Reduces the risk of premature fork seal damage
  • Easy installation process
  • Durable construction for long-term use
  • Enhances the bike's appearance with a clean finish

Cons

  • Specific to certain fork dimensions and models
  • White plastic may show scuffs over time
  • Does not protect against extreme high-speed direct impacts
  • Requires periodic removal to clean out trapped debris

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation generally involves aligning the guards with the existing mounting points on the fork legs. Ensure that the surface of the fork tube is clean before initial installation to prevent trapping grit underneath. Compatibility is critical; always cross-reference your specific motorcycle's fork diameter and mounting lug style with the part number 716.09.82. For care, it is recommended to remove the guards periodically after heavy mud riding to wash out any trapped silt or grit that may have migrated between the guard and the fork tube, as this grit can act like sandpaper if left unchecked.
