Crash Protection - R&G Discount

[Lukey Bike]

Hello,

Just to let you know I'm close to negotiating a discount on R&G crash protectors for V-Strom owners who use this site. Will let you know more when I do.

Here's a pic of mine. Overkill with the engine bars? Maybe.

Hello Luke, what crash bars have you got? I have the RG racing bungs in your picture and they have to be removed to fit Givi bars. I like the RGs because as well as being bloody solidly built they can be used to rest me long legs on long trips!! I'm sure I paid over £100 for them but they saved all my plastic in a fall last year (pannier helped too). Any discount would be good for those thinking of fitting the RGs.

I wouldn't win a prize at investigation...I see you have Suzuki bars...

Yep, Suzuki bars that are nicely rusting away.

They attached through the same engine mounting as the R&Gs, and as the R&G threaded bar is quite long, I was able to run them both. I would have taken the crash bars off had I not thought they offer the radiator a bit of extra protection.

Still working on how the R&G discount is sorted. Stay tuned.

I'm sure I paid over £100 for them but they saved all my plastic in a fall last year (pannier helped too). Any discount would be good for those thinking of fitting the RGs.

I know that R&G would love to receive a testimonial and any pictures you might have of them doing their job. email randg.racing@gmail.com
