86 R65 Fork Gaiters
Hello. New to the forum...Does anyone have any experience with gaiters on a mono R65? I am assuming it's the same size as an R80, but wanted to check here before I ordered. Thanks.

I don't think BMW ever supplied gaiters for the monoshock road bikes. Those supplied for the earlier twinshocks might be made to serve but they will be tight because the Mono forks have a slightly larger diameter... otherwise you're looking at aftermarket.
FWIW, yes the Mono R65 forks are the same as those used on the Mono R80.
