For those that may be looking for shock covers, I found a place shockcovers.com that has many more colors than Outerwears at a reasonable cost. I tried purchasing the NACS silver ones from Nacs, but they are sold out :cry:

I will post a review of fit and form upon receipt.

I used to have a set of these. They are cheap quality and price. They will do the job but only for a season or two. And they don't have NACS on the side of it. smile.gif

The " shockpros" are really highest quality, and even the rear is holding tight with no heat-destruction yet, and several colors...
this is closest pic I have handy, hope you can see... but I get lots of compliments these covers. http://www.shockpros.com/

Hey Canniboomer where did you get that headlight setup? Your quad really is sweet. It looks like you have some kind of seal around the light bezels.

I've got a pair of dirt skins on mine. They're made of neoprene and so far have held up well. Only time will tell if they will outlast my shockwears.

I have a set of PEP's that I use on all my sets of shocks and they've held up quite well. I bought them for $5 from a guy who had used them for 3 years and I've had them nearly a year since and they're still like new except the white lettering is starting to fade a little. Great shock covers and I believe they're neoprene too.

Yep, too pricey! I paid $89 shipped for 2 full sets, after talking to a guy on the phone.... maybe a group "power purchase" could get 'em down to $40

Big Dog, those scoops are actually my "vented deletes", with some bling buttons and chrome trim... here's more info this site:

I was never that big a fan of Shockwears when I was using them. I bought a couple sets of neoprene shock covers last year from a guy who sells them on ebay. If I remember correctly, they were like $35 per set of 3. I have only been using the fronts......just too uncomfortable with the lack of exhaust clearance in the rear. Mine are black, but I know he had other colors available. I have his info back home, but I'm in KC working right now. Anyway, they have held up great........and they clean up really nicely - I just throw them in the washing machine with my riding gear after each ride/race.
