Fork gaiters

Post by bigiain »

I I know it's been asked before but who sells the best red gaiters for a 55w
I've just ordered a new flappy mudguard and a rear one don't want to spoil it with crap gaiters.
Still looking for a headlight cowl all the ones on eBay are a bit shabby.
I also need original bars and front indicator brackets if anyone's selling them
Cheers iain

Yamaha OEM is best, although expensive. I've tried aftermarket ones that lasted a week, crap. Lots if suggestions on the forums as to aftermarket, my experience is best with OEM.

Your local Yamaha dealer will be able to get the indicator brackets, most likely cheaper than fleabay, at least I have found most of my parts were cheaper at Yamaha.

Thanks guys
I went to my yam dealer and he said fork gaiters are discontinued.
I bought a second hand 1vj front end last year and it had ariete fork gaiters on it which feel good quality but are unfortunately yellow.
So I've ordered a red pair from a guy in Germany,hopefully they will do the trick.
