Yoke protectors? - SV650.org

11-01-05, 12:39 AM

Can any one recommend a decent yoke protector for an old shape s model? Most of the carbon look ones iv seen on ebay look a bit naff.
The ART carbon ones look a bit smarter though, any one got one?

Has anyone tried one of these?

Not much help, but i just got the suzuki one for the k4 and it's nice, but fitting instructions state it has to be aat least 24 degrees to fit it, and it hasn't been hotter than about 10 since i got it

Brolong,
Ive got one of those yoke protectors. It looks great but is quite thin.
Generally does the job and was next day delivery from ebay.

Looked at these and the genuine ones are thicker and better quality, although you do pay for it, almost a domed finish over the top, if you know what I mean.

Cheers Mark.

Got mine from busters, nice thick one and fairly decent looking for carbon effect

I've got a Suzuki one, but it was found languishing at the bottom of a dusty shelf out the back and was marked way down to get shot of it.
I don't know if they do them any more for the curveys.
