I would really like a pair of those Polished Alloy Sleeves with the 3 grooves on them
to go on my new Ikon shocks, though it appears they are only for /6 models & the R90S.
Is that right? Did they come standard on those models?, and can you get them for /5s,
their a nice subtle touch of Bling.

Motorworks do a stainless copy specifically for Ikons:

I used to get stuff from Motorworks before they stopped shipping to the US.

To fit Ilona you need to enlarge the hole in the cover to fit, so normal SS ones can be made to fit

hi to all. boxertwinjeff, i had a set made up to suit my konis when i built the bike , but mine are made out of marine grade alloy. by memory the origianl bmw sleeves off the shocks did not fit over the konis ( id of the shrouds was to small to fit over the koni springs ) . also by memory it didnt cost much to get made plus there still alloy as oe on the bike. well thats my two cents worth
