A friend and I are going to make some carbon pipe guards for the 500.
We are going to do some for the pro circuit and fmf pipe also.
Looking at a price around $150-$180 and the best part about these is that they are repairable.....

Anybody interested?

Carbon is sexy, but kevlar would be a better material

I'll look into that Bob.Good idea.

You need special scissors....

I've got a few Eline units kicking around if you wanna see how they did it.

Thank's Sean,you got any pictures?

i would be keen for a couple dependingon what pipe you use

are they going to be 100% carbon fiber? or regular fiberglass with a paper thin layer of carbon on the outside like eline does

if i wasnt so impressed with my plastic skidplate id ask you to make a real Cf skidplate

Pro circuit ,and fmf gnarly are the two pipes that i have here,i just sold my stock pipe so I'd have to find another one to do a stock pipe guard.
I'm hoping we can do them for a bit less money so they are affordable for everybody.we will see after the molds are made.

There will be a couple layers of carbon in these.
They will be better than the other brand for sure.

Getting started with the FMF pipe first.

Thank you Michael,our's will have a lot more coverage than those.

i would be interested in a stock pipe guard.

Not sure what you mean by "covers, for steeles, that mount by the swingarm bolt" unless you mean frame guards?

I'm hoping we will do a guard for the stock pipe,but for now just the fmf and pro circuit pipe are in the works.

yes, that is what i meant! well what ever you decide to do keep us posted.

Larry spent all day on it today...

Great job Kevin!! Those are going to be bitchin!!

Thanks Rue

We should be ready to pull a part off it sometime next week...

FMF mold is finished,we are going to lay one up tomorrow afternoon...

What epoxy system are you using?

It's a mixture of a couple of things,super deep gloss,strong as hell.

Laying one up this afternoon,hopefully we will have one on my bike by the end of the week..
