Toe guard and swingarm/fork crash bobbins
I'm thinking of getting a toe guard and some fork and swingarm bobbins for the beast 8)
Any pics, advice and testimonials greatly appreciated :D |
Chewys stuff???

The R&G toe guard needs holes drilled in the swingarm to fit right- which I didn't fancy. So I glued it on, just for the look of it :roll: Probably not much use at all. Then it fell off (but to be fair, I broke it off and maybe didn't stick it back on well)
Fork bobbins, I use R&G, they're big and fit well. Swingarm, I also have R&G, but the Motosliders ones are wider and work better with a paddock stand. |
I have the R&G Toe guard fitted, I drill holes and tapped them properly to fit, it has taken a wack when the swing arm nearly touched down, but its still fully intact.
I also have some bog standard swingarm bobins which saved most of the swing arm in my last crash (not shown in photo). http://www.pyroserve.com/tsm/TSM_svtoeguard1.jpg |
See, I wouldn't want holes in my swingarm there- that's an expansion stress point as well. It'd probably be absolutely fine but I don't like probably.

Yep, that's why I reckon it'd probably be fine. But any hole is a stress point, so for something that'll probably never benefit me I decided against it. I'm not going to pronounce you doomed though :)

I'm sorry but the Snotoiler and toe guard really dont go together :?
