Grouch Posted June 23, 2012 Posted June 23, 2012 Got these from eBay for £20, what a bargain. I fitted them today and they're brilliant from stopping the cold and rain on my hands.
FlyZanzibar Posted June 23, 2012 Posted June 23, 2012 I have the same (I think) on my TTR. They're great, but they also seem to trap bees! I've had about 10 bees try (and fail) to fly through the slit in the top. I don't know why, but my handguards seem to attract bees.
Moderator Airhead Posted June 23, 2012 Moderator Posted June 23, 2012 I just sold some like that for £15.00...perhaps my buyer made a killing They look good on your bike

Grouch Posted June 23, 2012 Author Posted June 23, 2012 Lol I thought you said you sold me them on eBay.
blackhat250 Posted June 23, 2012 Posted June 23, 2012 Is it your motorbike shop on eBay? YEH ITS HIS , thats him at the back ye bleak old shop of Stuff
Grouch Posted June 24, 2012 Author Posted June 24, 2012 YEH ITS HIS , thats him at the back ye bleak old shop of Stuff Well tell him I want a refund because they are broken!
FlyZanzibar Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 Did yours come as standard or did you fit them? Mine didn't come as standard, although I didn't fit them They bend quite a lot though, which is good. They look like they'd survive many scrapes/drops, since they're not enclosed over the ends of the bars, like the stock ones are. Put simply, I thought they would be worth way more than £20!
FlyZanzibar Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 Also, is your headlight unit an aftermarket one? I was looking at a similar (or identical?) one, wondering about the quality...
Grouch Posted June 25, 2012 Author Posted June 25, 2012 As far as I know my headlight is the original. You can pay a lot more for hand guards, the ones I bought are one of the cheapest available.
