    Hi, Has anyone fitted engine bar guards to their Thruxton 1200?
    What is your experience. Do they look ok?
    Have they prevented damage in a low speed spill?
    What make fhave you chosen?
    How much did they cost?
    Thoughts welcomed

    I have R&G crash guards on my TTR for 5 years. So far have not had to find out how well they work. They look good and pretty easy to install

    Evotech also do some but another £60 and are round not aero shaped like the R&G ones. However, if the Evotech ones are like those I have fitted through the wheel spindles of my Street Triple I suspect you will find that even though they are securely fixed the bit that will actually touch the deck can still rotate freely and not just grind along the blacktop.
