| It’s an interesting look- I have the NOS brand neoprene ones on mine to keep the fork clean and devoid of bugs and stone divots so I don’t get a fork seal leak. I’d like to see it with those on and the bodywork back on as well. |

| I installed fork gators on mine. The neoprene/ velcro kind. Installed them after installing new fork seals, not sure they help but can't hurt? Yours look better so carry on!

| I used SealMate on my forks to clean the gunk out, one side was leaking slightly and this helped a lot. I figure the cleaning bought me 4 years but eventually I had to have the seals replaced... Good luck |

| That turned out nice! I assume you’re putting the front fender back on, no? What color is that (looks like a version of black)? What bike is in the 3rd pic- a Reflex? |
