Factory Honda shroud extenders

Edited Date/Time 11/28/2014 3:10am
Anyone know if these shroud extenders are available to the public somewhere? I have been getting stuck on the pointy tip of the shroud pretty often when riding sand tracks.

Hmm, why? To force more air towards the radiators?

that looks UGLY. They just rivet it on, at least they should cover the rivets with the graphics. They are factory honda afterall so I doubt they are running the same shroud/graphics with the extension off.

Or just do this. Old shrouds on new shrouds.

I think it looks great. Very "factory" looking. Covering the extensions with the graphics would hide the carbon fiber trickness.

Its not the carbon that makes it ugly, its the exposed rivets. Just have the graphics where they currently are but covering the rivets.

I don't get how honda hasn't sorted this... I can remember Windham's bikes on his first stint at Honda having something similar, all for stopping your boot getting caught.

I just bought a new 15 and when I'm getting low and have leg up in corner I'd say 50% time my leg gets caught on top / tip of shroud hell I ripped the shroud flap off frame once already.

I need to do something before I snap I have full cycra plastic kit and the powerflow shrouds do nothing to help the issue still happens.

Someone said cut rip shroud off but not really keen on doing that to brand new plastic and graphics then have it not work.

Wish someone just made these things I'd buy set right now lol

Evolution.. Why don't they just make them longer from the factory?

That's my exact problem. It sucks. I bet Acerbis, Cycra and co. could make some money making plastic versions that you could rivet on yourself, doesn't have to be expensive carbon
