Here they are :

The picture shows it all. Maybe you can find comparable ones in the US.
If not, maybe you can order them from overseas.
'cause I made some bad experiences with a fork of an used older bike, oil
was coming out, I use these protectors to hinder insects and mud to stick to the
fork and damage the simmer rings on the long run when the fork dives.
Maybe they work, I will see in the next years. Theses part are inexpensive and easy
to install.

Nice c-breezy! 
That was my usual experience when pulling up on one of the Valkyries as well. Nice little cruise along that stretch of road right there. My son lived in Rancho SM and made for a nice little local ride when visiting. I believe it was Trabucco, Live Oak and maybe Santiago Canyon Rd.
Thanks for sharing and bringing back some of those memories.
It is Harley Country after all, says so right there!

Haha nice Gary, I don't recall seeing that sign before, or if I did, I don't remember, but I'll definitely look for it next time! I also like how you wrote Harley Country in orange, nice touch

Thanks curlyjoe! Still got it, although it's a bit more "cafe'd" than before, haha.
Some of you may think there were some posts right here about suhawk305's mishap with his bike. You're right: there were some posts here, but I've now moved them all to this more appropriate thread.
You're not a pest, curlyjoe. Thanks for letting me know. It's fixed now.

Monday begins a new month. Just a reminder that Use2b was the first to post a "gathering" pic so he gets to pick the subject of May's photo challenge.

Begun in 1847 as one of four suspension aqueducts on the Delaware and Hudson Canal, it was designed by and built under the supervision of John A. Roebling, future engineer of the Brooklyn Bridge. The Roebling Bridge spans over the Delaware River between Minisink Ford, New York and Lackawaxen, Pennsylvania. Roebling's Delaware Aqueduct - Wikipedia

This is the first significant ride I taken on my CD11 since I purchased it last November.
The ride started out well, however, my return trip was did not go so well. I was riding on an unfamiliar secondary road, went around a curve a little too fast and found myself sliding down the sand. I did not get too hurt, the worst part is I ended up on the side of the bike and the side kick stand foot extension tore through my jeans' crotch (no need to go further.) The kick stand had my jeans tied up! A couple of good Samaritans stopped, helped me unbury my handlebar stuck in the ground. Got the bike up and rode it about 25 miles to my friend at his body shop. He knows the the owner of the Honda dealer and they will fix my bike. It will be alot of parts.

At the home front, my wife was not too pleased when I came through the door. She is worried about my future with my CB11. Hope to get to ride it again. Other wise, there will be a CB11 with only about 180 miles on the odometer for sale.
Tomorrow is another day.
Interesting! I went over that bridge in a car about 15 years ago while visiting in-laws in the area. We have an 1866 [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_A._Roebling_Suspension_Bridge]Roebling suspension bridge between Covington, Kentucky and Cincinnati, Ohio.
Saw in another thread that you went down on the way home. Bummer! Could happen in an instant. Glad you're OK...sounds like the bike is another story.
