TRIUMPH FORK PROTECTORS

These are a commonly added item to 1G B6/B12's. (2G's come with fork protectors.) Available from Holeshot, or your local Triumph dealer. Attach easily, look OK, cheap ($16 or so) should keep some bugs off of the fork tube, saving the seals!

 Pete,

According to the diagram, does not look like the forks need to come off, but to simply place the protector around collar, right?

 Real easy install! You don't need to remove anything!

SUZUKI Fork Protectors

You should be able to use Suzuki ones now, too... the 2001+ B12's come with them.  

But then knowing Suzuki, they'll probably bend you over and load you from the rear like a shotgun if you were to buy theirs

 Paul,

Thanks for the feedback on Suzuki. If the Holeshot ones do not work out I at least have another avenue. Holeshot was only like a .22 caliber, not like the Suzuki shotgun!

Re: Triumph Fork Protectors

As far as I know, Holeshot sells the 'Triumph' fork protectors.

You can get them at a local 'Triumph' dealer for a little less, but some people are having problems with the part number!!

I'l try to get a current one!

Either 'Wild Hare' or 'streetfighters by design' has billet fork protectors, which look cool, but cost $40 or so.

If I don't know the right answer, I'll make one up!
