Pant leg touching chain

[FastFreddy]

Bell bottoms look alright on the Charlie's Angels... maybe not on a geezer.
maybe high cut jeans and bell bottoms are making a comeback.

My kevlar jeans fit snuggly over my day to day boots and laces.

The guy I started riding with reckons he got caught up on a footpeg with long laces once.

Sometime cheap rain pants get flappy at the bottom too. watch out for it.

I fight so hard not to belabor the obvious. One's jeans are dragging the chain. *sigh*

Ok.. but I don't wear boot cuts just straight legs that are slim, even my pants are that way. They flop around around that chain area no matter what.

I did a temporary fix using a soda bottle. I just cut a piece out, and bolted it in on the bracket that holds the foot pegs, log enough so it reaches the bolt just above the gear selector rod.

I get grease on my pant leg a lot. I wear boot cut a lot too though. Haven't paid attention to it during low commuting or high weekend rides. But I figured it was just excess grease. Only 2025 miles on the bike so far. I'll have to start paying more attention to that, but I'm investing in some of the clips that keep the hem down on the boot too. Pain in the butt adjusting the leg every other light.

FZ6R chain guard design flaw

I totally agree that the current FZ6R chain guard has a design flaw because it leaves a 5 inch unprotected gap in the front. It's too bad PUIG did not improve on the guard design with their chain guard / tire hugger.

Hey, there's some good stuff buried in the old threads! I say revive anything that strikes one's fancy. A new take is always interesting, and you never know what someone might dig up!

 

[nismos14]

Here's my current solution.

Another thread from 2009?

 

[bleedinblue]

At least we aren't on a cruiser forum.They probably have old threads about Roller Disco's and all kinds of crap that haunts them.

Another thread from 2009?

So how do I win? If I created a new thread 1/2 the forum would be like OMG why didn't you search, this has been discussed. Then others would be like, omg thread revival. OMG.

Oh well whatever.

You did the right thing, as mods we would've had to merge it anyways, because of duplicate info in threads.

I agree on reviving old ones as well, lots of hidden info in them, rather than starting another new one and another and another, and have to answer the same damn questions.

Reviving old threads is best way...Useless comments about revival is to be expected
