Hi KISA!

 

They are an aftermarket product and are generic. They are designed to fit many brands of motorcycles. Yes, they are a very good idea! There are also rubber covers you can buy new called "Gaters" that work well but not as pretty.

 

Hope this translates OK.

Pretty is in the eye of the beholder. To me gaiters are tidy and look much better than rusty chrome metal fork guards. They also work better to keep dust and rain from collecting on the fork tubes and causing wear on the seals.

Those resemble the ones on my 89 that I recently raved about. Only difference is there is no external or visible shoulder, the clamp tang is inside, out of view. When they are on the bike they are virtually undetectable and sit close enough to the tube that it looks like they belong, that and easy on/off and very adjustable. Gaiters to me look out of place on a pavement bound machine but the protection is needed regardless. I have never had a pair of these but after digging into tbe forks a few times I learned to love this type of shield. I will seek out a other pair for my next street bike. Now that I look at it they may be the same as mine. I think your really going to like those!
