Remove Plastic Fork Guards
Important: Be careful not to direct heat at the fork seals.
Using a heat gun on low setting or a hair dryer, heat the plastic guards to soften them. Direct the hot air from the bottom of the guard up so as not to heat the fork seal. As teh plastic softens gently pull the guard forward. When soft it will be easy to cut the guard free with a pair of scissors or razor
