Fork Guards for Honda CB500F

thingiverse

I made this fork guard for my 2014 CB500F bike. It's supposed to fit the CB500X and CBR500R models too since they have the same forks. They keep bugs and other debris out of the fork seals, which can get damaged easily. These guards measure 63mm in diameter, so if you've got a bike with forks that are 63mm on the outside, you can use them or even adjust their size to fit your needs. The included spacer lets me tighten down the guard snugly without cracking it over time as the plastic ages. The spacer is hollow inside and has extra strength because of its design. To install this guard, I'll need a 50mm M6 bolt (or socket cap screw), two M6 washers, and an M6 nut. I recommend using stainless steel hardware and a nylock nut for added security. You should be able to find all these parts at your local hardware store. If they don't have metric measurements, 1/4" imperial will also work.
