Suzuki Intruder VS1400: Install Fork Covers by ZR TEC - Rebuild Part 8

How to install the Fork Covers by ZR-TEC on to a Suzuki VS1400 Intruder. There are no fixings or nuts and bolts needed on these fork covers, they are just plug and play.
We need to remove the front brake from the disk and drop the forks out of the triple tree but that is it. We can then re-install the forks as you normally would but, this time, with the fork covers in place.
Huge thanks to ZR-TEC.COM for Donating these fork covers for the Suzuki Intruder VS1400 project, can not wait to get them out in the sunshine!
If you need fork covers for the 800cc, 750cc or 600cc Suzuki Intruder Models, be sure to check out ZR-TEC, they have got it covered!
Grab yourself a set over at bit.ly/3bgxeHQ - They do now offer international postage!

This is the biggest project I have taken on, The bike will be completely stripped down to the frame, the engine will be removed for new piston rings to be installed, the wiring harness is going to be rewired and the entire bike overhauled, ready for spring 2020....I hope.

I went ahead and ordered the covers after a couple of weeks I grew concerned after spending £320 I received a message from the post office demanding £63 import fees .so much for Brexit be warned never had that with German goods before. Brilliant video thank you

[@craigcail9126]

Great video well done. Thanks

[@tilou1993]

Super professional video quality and great explanations. You deserve to be known.

I appreciate that!

[@ursdummy0o0]

Thanks for making this, loved the contents and precise manners you talked through the installation process.👍

[@skynddiglangsomt123]

Mate I think i've seen all your videos and i'm very happy that you take your time and explain things the way you do. Great job man! I'm getting my ´87 1400 tomorrow, so also super excited about that and it gives me great comfort to know, that you guide me to how I install/repair/ disassample my bike! Can't wait to work on it myself!

Thanks for your kind words brother! Congrats on the purchase of your 1400, keep us in the loop!

[@willowsmutt8313]

Love the looks of these...

[@willowsmutt8313]

I dont think they are going to fit with a windshield though. Sweet looking...

[@sergei3473]

огонь! Попробую сделать сам!)

[@myoldcars3056]

Great video. Thanks! I don't have the same bike, but it's pretty similar. So this gives me enough info that I feel comfortable doing it on my bike.

[@krim-gz9dd]

waoww...i love the result, i think i will have to do mine 🤩😅

Go for it!

[@Tuftsedge1]

Great video.very helpful.would love to see how you replace the bulbs for the neutral ,turn signal, engine light in the dash.

[@nicoschneider8680]

Really great Video again! Perfect description of the Job. Well done 🤘

Thanks Nico! Glad you enjoyed it.

[@arghyl]

Wow man. I really dig the look on the bike!!

[@arghyl]

I want to do this to mine but if I do I'll have to figure out the turn signals and windshield

@@arghyl Yes, definitely need to consider how that is going to work, I will have a solution for it soon brother!

[@Cody-zd2ye]

Didn't realise the video was posted a year ago I noticed the front indicators were removed so I'm guessing they don't go back on I have a 94 and I love it thinking of adding the fork covers

[@enriquecaballero3024]

Esto es fantástico, GRACIAS!

[@wertonomontesilvamontesilv4358]

Muito bom cara valeu pelo video

[@silviu788]

Very good video and I liked how you talked! would you upgrade the front brakes? Did you ride it? If yes I am wondering about the brakes! Thanks!

[@fayelove54]

Do you have a video on replacing the neutral safety switch? My bike neutral light doesn't light up and it won't start unless the stand is up.

[@jeanraphaelfischer2074]

Love your videos. I have a question tho! Do you think a Suzuki gsxr fork will fit on an Intruder 1500?

[@aguinaldocabral6997]

Olá irmão! Essa peça que colocou na suspensão dianteira foi vc que mandou fabricar ou comprou pronta ?

[@loudexplorer5851]

Looks great! But weren't you gonna install the bits to have a wider fork?

Oh I will be :) But wanted to illustrate those that don't have the wider triple tree how to fit these covers to the Stock triple trees first :)

[@josephbuckley3619]

Where could i get some Fork covers for my 1400? I can’t find them with my search. Please

ZR Fork Covers.

[@zoltanvonsomogyi7272]

I have an '04 1400. Love my bike! Thanks for all you're doing and showing us here. The chrome caps that go on the swingarm mounting holes are missing on mine. Any idea where I could find them? Can t wait to see more progress on your machine!

Thanks for the support Zoltan! For the side caps, grab yourself a set over at Winters Machining - You'll get 10% off with HAGARMOTO10 ;) wintersmachining.com

[@zoltanvonsomogyi7272]

@ thank you! I love your channel. Great stuff!

[@fayelove54]

Do you grease any parts in the wheel. For the bearings foe instance.

[@devinbraun8315]

Where are you relocating the front signal lights to?

Now that, good sir, is THE question. I'll have an answer for you as soon as I sort out the best solution

[@devinbraun8315]

Perhaps some integrated signals/mirrors?

@@devinbraun8315 Thinking perhaps, harley style from the handlebar mirror mounts

[@jordanwigley8909]

How do you align the forks?

[@lvbbikers7956]

[@jacobmorse44]

Hey was wondering if you could answer a question I'm trying to find out. Is DOSE the cdi or ECU control when to spark or is it constant power when accessories are on

[@jacobmorse44]

Really really need help

What problem are you having brother? Is it no spark?

[@jacobmorse44]

@ what's going on is I go to crank it sometimes it'll pop sometimes it doesn't it's like a fuel issue cuz I go to spray aether inside the airbox start the pop a lot more it's a fuel issue I rebuilt the carbs and it's still doing that like at first before all of this it was running but it sounded like it was only one carburetor running or like when you don't have a good enough ground and it starts to like catch voltage and then doesn't catch voltage my cat wags really hard on throttle

[@Ben7Seven]

mega!!
