Can anyone verify that the 41mm gaiters in the above JP Cycles link will work on our CB1100?
thanks

Being 41mm in diameter it will definitely fit our forks but what you would need to find out is the length or height of the Gaiters themselves. I would Call them and see if they can verify that.

Ok I am confused but I confuse easily. Angry I called J&P Cycle to see if the ones they sell will fit our CB1100.The ones in the above link with the "zipper" on back? Dude on the phone said and I quote, " top is 41mm bottom is two inches"

I say what? He says that's what my computer says sir. Has anyone tried these on a CB1100? Our forks are 41mm but where you attach these on the bottom it is about 64-65mm which is about two and a half inches.
Maybe the dude on the phone does not know what he is talking about.

I love the look of these so much! Good purchase feelings all around. Took me 25 min to install .


what happened to the exhaust of your Guzzi, you bandage the pipes because they are injured?

Cool looking, but rots the pipes. Strongly recommend you reconsider. That is the bike I was considering instead of the CB1100 (orange and cream Special though). Nice bike, a wee bit too small for me. Tongue Still not a bad bike at all though. You did good. Worship
