Cool New Fork Covers
« on: October 22, 2011, 12:15:48 PM »
Had seen the relatively common Ness covers and the new pieces from Mother Harley.  The OE for those has both a chrome and the black pieces Harley still only offers.  Had also seen and really like the "Yafterburner" pieces from Yaffe.  Have those on the Road King project so couldn't use them again on another bike in the same garage.  That would be oh so gauche.

Hadn't seen these until a week ago though.  From a company called SMT Machining.  When I ordered they only had black pieces in stock.  They pulled a black set out of inventory then stripped them and had them chromed.  Still had them here in about ten days.  Very pleasant folks to buy from and the parts are nice.  They're going on the old SERG sometime sooner rather than later.

Might even put them on the SEEG rather than the SERG.  SEEG already has the covers with the little B&S logo and the rolled bottom.  They're better than the plain stock pieces.  But there weren't a lot of options several years ago when they were installed.  SERG is the only set of forks with the plain covers though.  And they're pretty beat up.  So that's the most likely new home.

Flames run uphill Duane.  Easier to see with their stock pic of the parts done in black.

Billet pieces.  Looks like nice machine work also.  New parts for them so short inventory.  Was told that's why the pieces aren't on the website yet.  Give 'em a call.  Very pleasant folks to work with.

Extremely cool mod Twolane. You know I love flames! Too bad they wouldn't work on a wide glide!

Very nice pieces. They will look great on the SERG or the SEEG.

Actually thought of you when I saw them Mark.  No suck luck as Wide Glide parts though.  I checked!

The covers will probably go on the SERG mark.  I think they'd be a good complement to the framed engraved legs on the SEEG.  But the covers on the SERG are butt ugly and beat up.  So they actually need replacing.

This shop had some options other than the flames MJ.  The Yafterburner pieces from Yaffe are my favorite of all the current options I know of right now.  Ness has recently released something close to the Yafterburner pieces now too.  They're what Harley just released in black.  Though from Ness there's a chrome option also.  All the billet pieces look better than Mother Harley old pieces that give the impression of stamped tin though.  So I'm pleased to see any of the current options.
