not sure exactly how much but you can get them from Baldwin Motorsports (http://www.baldwinmotorsports.com) . I think I paid around $70 or so.

Check with pappy, I bought his shocks from him but didn't want his blue covers. He might still have them.

ok, thanks everyone.

i have heard other people saying not to use a rear shock cover, but i was never told why. i dont race, i just trail ride, and very little mx, so if heat is a concern, i will never get these shocks hot enough to worry about. thanks for the heads up though, please explain.:confused:

i wouldnt reccommend the rear b/c IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE & NO ONE WILL SEE IT! maybe thats why?

pfft, expensive... SHOCKS are expensive. You get covers to protect them! Not for looks :rolleyes: I would pay $70... instead of a new PC job on them.. or maybe new seals. Your rear wont get as dirty and barely any rocks or dirt will hit them. Hence why you dont really need to run the rear. Its a pay me now, or pay me later kind of thing.

lol...i was just joking...when i ordered my works shocks I ordered them to have black & white springs but they sent me blue & white so I got a free pair of shock covers from them. I am using those but I owuldnt run any if it wasnt for them being free b/c its crazy how they charge that much money for some fabric....its like paying $100 for a regular white t-shirt.

well... I guess you should go into the business if you think its so easy. I will give you $5 if you can make me some neoprene shock covers with Elka on them. They also have to look just as good as the other companies.

:rolleyes: shock covers offer protection, there not for looks, you spend almost a grand or more on shocks there is no reason not to buy some shock covers to protect your investment

I can do it:D :D :D I'm starting up a new little business making shock covers, I make 2 kinds one is from a foamie/neoprene material & the others are made of nylon. They come in blue,red,black,green,yellow,white.......the foam ones are blk only!!! I have a post here somewhere w/ pics of them, I can also embroider whatever you want on them!! They are $25(for fronts) + $10 for embroidery.

No, cause I was just making a point. I know you wouldnt make decent looking covers, with what I specified. For $5.
