The early rear fairing wings are enclosed and I don't know that there is space to mount outboard. Are the later rear faring wings "hollow" with enough space to re-tighten connections as necessary? Yep. I really wanted to site mine ‘inboard’ but just could not wangle them in there. With the bodywork in place i can just about poke a driver down to nip up if required. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docc Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Looks like there is an auxiliary forward panel mounted above the location of the "hugger." Is there another triangular panel mounted the area of the swingarm in front of the rear tire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I’ve seen these on the internet all scarred up from sliding down a freeway for over a hundred dollars. This was $52.20 plus freight for a brand new (maybe old stock) part from Harper’s. Can’t say enough how happy I am at that price point. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A rare, full, set of "EdgeGuards" made by our 2004-2013 member "stormsedge" . I run a full set and find them very well designed to keep the grit and spray off the shock, vulnerable shock eye, and the back of the gearbox (including the extremely important main electrical ground). When stormsedge left the forum, he offered the molds and materials to anyone that would carry on, but there were no takers. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docc Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 (Yeah, I've been known to ride some crappy roads. This year's SpineRaid over The Cherohala Skyway was no exception.) I have never regretted adding the EdgeGuards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only to figure out I have a rare “Edge Guards” from Stormsedge. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skip Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Hey Joe, I have the same set-up on my 02 Lemans, they are held on by zip ties, work quite well and you cant see it like the huggers, (which I'm not particularly fond of). Nice, clean, and open. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pressureangle Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 Finally getting around to fixing. The annoying alternator leak was my fault, not the front cover seal but my inattention to the spacer sleeve o-rings. The rear one was absent (there's a rear one, right? There is now) and the hidden one in the groove was hardened and came out in pieces. Meh. The oil cooler mounting pins were torn from the cooler, and the mounting brackets bent. Apply hammer and JB weld, blast and paint to come. The sidestand bracket snagged on the trailer slot rail hard enough to pull the 6mm screw out of the case, so for your enjoyment a 12mm Time-Sert was installed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
