Sounds like a good project when changing the front tire?

Yeah it would be. Wheel is already off, remove the fender and calipers and undo the triple tree bolts, slide out the tubes and put on the gaiters. Put everything back Smile. Use torque wrench.

I installed them and a new set of handle bars at the same time. I would say gators were the easier of the two. Its a fun simple project, and very rewarding!

I made the mistake of putting the cheap British Customs gaiters on the first time... they were trash in just 8 months. I replaced them with the Kawi part.

British Customs, junk!
