Fork protector for Honda VFR800 RC79 (2014-)

thingiverse

The Honda VFR800 RC79 (gen.8 2014- ) motorcycle have very exposed fork legs. A protector can be added to each leg to avoid oncoming debris to damage them. Of course I opted to make a pair myself. Simply print two, slide them past the upper fork leg and push them down carefully to fit as in the attached photo. Attach a zip-tie in the groove to keep in place. Might fit other bikes as well were the outer diameter of the outer part of the fork leg is 60mm Print Settings Printer: Wanhao Duplicator i3 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2mm Infill: 100% Notes: I printed these in PETG and used brim as bottom support. I used the following settings in Cura. Bottom part came out perfect but a little stringy on the thin upper half, but still good to go imho. Could maybe be even better if slowing down even more.
