fork covers

[terrylee]

Wasn't sure where to put this question, but thought I'd try here. My son wants a set of fork cover for his 79 850, he wants the older rubber accordin type (sorry for spelling). We saw a pair on a old Honda in a magazine. Anyone know if they are still available and what size to fit his bike? Could I just look up parts for a Honda a maybe find a pair to fit. terrylee

Most cycle shops will carry them, Just go to parts counter and tell them and they will hook ya up!! and for length just measure on the forks how far you want the covers to cover and bam you got the lenth you want. They are usually around $15 a piece

You have to look in the dirt bike section...

Not sure which of these you'll want -- you'll have to compare the measurements given:

The boots from most 4wd truck shocks should work. Daystar makes them in different lengths and sizes. You need to measure the OD of the upper fork tube, the OD of the lower fork tube and the length.
