na you have to take the forks off to do it but i cut them in half and velcroed then on but they dont look half as good as they would if i took the forks off if you get some i recomend you take the forks off
My thoughts are that if you try fitting it that way you run the risk of strecthing it out on the brake bracket . But then again I dont know personally how strecthy those things are .
Your right Mugen on my acerbis socks theres no way you could take them from the bottom up, they would stretch big time, and probably rip, I did think of this idea at the start with mine, but the risk was too high, and I thought theres no way thats gonna happen, so of course you have to take the top off and slide them down, I also got the zip ties on too.....comes out something like this....Pic Below
i was ment to get the speedo aswell but it got lost on way here but luckly its alrite just put wheels on purtt speedo cable in a its fine my mates got the dtx aswell and i was doin the same speed as him
Cheers Mugen mate, either way if you have them on or off your bike is gonna look awesome, just no going back to them gaitors they do make DT's look dated in abit way!!!
