did that
they seem to be a middle man with no physical inventory (or at least non of this product)

You or I could do that, but DIY would have a hard time even if they were free. He's a little bit of a tight wad.... No, that isn't true. He is a major tight wad. :mrgreen:

it is not so much a matter of me being a tightwad as it is a matter of national pride: i am afterall first and foremost DUTCH :bravo:

(and for the record, they are 4 dollars PLUS 3 dollars S+H)

im case anyone is wondering, here is what they look like installed
its a pretty good fit, i just had to trim about 1/4 inch off the bottom

here is the other side, i had to cut this one in half to spin the "kawasaki" around, otherwise it would look backwards somehow

When you pull that studded tire off would be a good time to reroute that brake cable.
