I got tired of cracking OEM T7 fork guards; the OEM ABS plastic is just too brittle. Our aluminum fork guard protectors did help beef up the OEM guards, but... I still wanted forkguards made of proper dirtbike plastic.

I've been running the polypropylene prototype guards for months (as have several T7 friends). I'm very happy with the results of our torture testing, so it's time to get the guards to market! We've got a pre-sale up now, with shipping expected in late December. Order now and save 20%

Our fork guards are:

 

  • Direct bolt-on replacements for an easy install
  • Significantly more durable than the factory ABS parts
  • Available in black, white and blue*
  • Compatible with our aluminum fork guard protectors
  • Compatible with OEM low fender and aftermarket high fender kits
  • Matte finish like the OEM parts
  • Guaranteed against cracking for 3 years; if it cracks, we'll replace it for free (see website for full details)
  • SOLD IN PAIRS

 

*We cannot guarantee an exact color match to your bike's other body panels! The OEM white and blue are metallic finishes; these parts are not. The blue option is the same color as Yamaha dirt bikes, NOT the metallic T7 blue.*

You certainly love your job!

Now to work on international shipping prices 😲

 

edit 😭

Shipping is more than the guards cost.

Damn this distance.

 

Hmmm maybe I need a holiday in Calgary.

Yeah, shipping costs are one thing we have very little control over. We get a sizeable discount through UPS but shipping to Australia is still $&@! expensive.

The fork guard shipment arrived from the molder today! Pre-sale orders started heading out this afternoon and the rest will be out the door tomorrow. 

Thanks for your orders and your patience!

@Camel ADV you are truly an amazing supplier!  I spent 20 years in product engineering and development and out of hundreds of vendors, only once before have I encountered one of your quality.

 

Merry Christmas to you and your team!

Thanks for the kind words. I have great staff and I love what I do so that’s half the battle! None of it would matter without our kickass customers!

Just a quick note for those of you who purchased the T7 fork guards on the pre-sale:

We originally had the guards priced at $59/pair, and we discounted them 20% for pre-sale orders ($47.20). Our all-in cost was lower than I had projected so the guards are listed at $49/pair now. To keep things fair for people who bought during the pre-sale, we'll be setting up a credit on your account to even things out. You'll have to give us a bit of time as there are a lot of names to enter in the system.

Thanks for your ongoing support!
