Thumbs down Works Connections Frame Gaurds

I have ran them on my bike for almost a year. On the right side of the bike the frame gaurd kinda sticks out in the back (best way I can describe it) its not flush. Well I caught my boot on it several times during jumps in the air and almost broke my ankle. Last time I bit it pretty hard. I took the frame gaurd off on the right side and left the one on the left side on.

Spdfrek has a set on his 01 YZ250 and has never had a problem with his. I think he wears a size 9 boot, so not much different than Machoman's.

I run them...always have and I wear a size 13, never had any issues.

You may want to get ahold of works on that one.

I wear a size 9, I will have to put it back on and take a picture...it also cut my tech 8's (almost brand new) from repeatedly doing it.

Maybe I should just keep my feet on the pegs!

I doubt that WC would do anything...no way for me to prove it.

I would like to try some of those Carbon Fiber ones...they are rounded on the frame.

Cardinal, I would at least try to contact W/C. I have a set on my Yamaha and I love them- no hanging up on boots problems.

Could you bend them into proper shape?

Hit it with a stick. Won't fix the problem, but it might make you feel a little better.

Sounds like a possible factory 2nd. Take some pics and mail them to WC. I bet they make it right if it's on them.

Like mine... sounds like you bent it. Bend it back before you hurt yourself... if you have carbon fiber ones it would have creacked and be laying on the track.
