fazer fork bottoms

[Kentish]

anyone know what colour silver to use on the foxeye? can they be sprayed without taking them apart?

[Chris]

Not sure about colour.

I took mine off the bike and sanded them then hung them from the garage roof with some wire through the axle holes. I sprayed mine black and they look much nicer in my opinion.

If I was to do it again I'd take them apart and get them powder coated.

Mine I think are clear coated - I was thinking of going black with mine

Lovely blue Fazer!  Liking the black fork bottoms .  Its a part of my Fazer which really spoils it.  Everything else is pretty clean for the age of the bike but let down by the nasty corrosion on the forks.


I have access to a powder coater but assume its not an easy job removing the forks so a job for later in the year.

Thanks, 

removing the forks isn't too hard, just got to make sure they're all lined up right when you put them back on. haha.

Here's a better pic of the front end:
