You will probably have to join to see the links, but order them from here: http://www.zrxoa.org/forums/showthread. ... e-ZRX-1200

The bug gards were $25. http://www.zrxoa.org/forums/showthread. ... 200/page16

Look at this page for a pic of the fork brace with the bug guards fitted (but mine are only held on with the double sided tape that is supplied, you don't need to drill and screw them like this bloke): http://www.zrxoa.org/forums/showthread. ... 200/page17


Don't look at any of his other stuff either, or it will lighten your wallet. ;) http://www.zrxoa.org/forums/forumdispla ... Greg-Couch

Just asking as pods are no good when they get wet, cross winds can also affect them.

With the addition of pods and a stage 3 jetkit you may get between 3-6 HP (depending on what exhaust you have), probably the biggest advantage would be not having to reconnect the airbox rubbers after changing jets etc.

I ride mine in all conditions, hence why I still use the std airbox with a K&N filter, a few HP would make no difference to me. AFAIC it's all about the chassis ;) :twisted: :P
