Default Fork Boots ya or nay with pic
Well I have been waiting on my hard bags and new wheels but in the time being I did get in the fork boots . At 75 bucks I thought they would be over priced junk but to my surprise they are pretty stout . These are the ones where you dont have to take apart your forks to install they snap together pretty well and hold . So what ya think ? I think it gives it a old school look , but with the fat spokes in the mail I think it will really pop .
Also decided to add the J&M handle bar speakers .

I like the boots, and I like black & chrome combo. However, I like shine more than black, and the boots hide some shine, so...

...I think that I'd opt for the no boots look.

Nice either way though.
