I'll have to remember that!  :bier:

1. don't go to fast

2. don't do anything stupid

3. when sh^t happens, and it will, do the right thing

4. I think the most important thing about not crashing is will power...a no fear attitude helps.

5. I suppose $1000 mufflers, $500 clip-ons and gold plated valve covers (Bling!) with no crash guards, wearing only flip-flops, speedo, and wife-beater shirt,  could be a good incentive not to crash :D

Yes I had a similar set as standard fitment on my S3...Actually, I rather think I still have them.

 

It always concerned me that if they were used in anger, they might well trash the frame?  :unsure:

The weak point on the Sport crash bars is the upper mount- they use the same bolts as the radiator.

I've crashed my other bikes with crash bars and always seem to come out ok- I surfed my G5 into a bar ditch at 50-70 mph one time- literally crouched on top of it. I busted the headlight and bent both rims, but the bike was fine. :P Gawd, I was a reckless kid.

Ive read that the stock head guards on my 2002 v 11 wont protect very well if I drop the bike. anyone know where I can find larger,or better designed head guards at a decent price in the USA? thanks! :mg:

Yo,

 

I really liked the J Kenny ones too, but I don't know anything

about them. I went with the ones from Sport Cycle Pacific in

Santa Barbara (805) 966 6508 ask for Dave. They look great.

They stick out farther and are at least a 1/3 thicker. And not

expensive. I think the web site was: sportcyclepacific.com

 

Peace, rubberside down

P.S. I think "dlaing" is on to some thing here. Kind of a Cali

alturnitive to those expensive Ghezzi-Brian green ones.

The Joe Kenny ones are prettier, but the SCP ones look beefier and look like they will protect more, BTW I dig those black rocker covers!

I completely agree. The JK look the stuff, but the ones from SCP have that...

I could slide these for a 100 feet or so meat. And that's what got me.

Know if we we're talking the 4 Valve crash guards, I'd have to say that the

J kenny's look the best and seem to be the beefer 4 valve crash guard yet.

 

Special note to BIGBIKERRICK: I couldn't resist when I found those covers.

I think I've been looking for those my whole life: GUZZI dam straight,

its not a Ducati! (and I like Ducks too, but god dam, look at the engine 1st kid)

 

Peace,
