This may seem a stupid question
but on my old Bandit the bars are mounted around the bottom of the engine, so protected all the lower part of the bike, brake pedal, engine casings & gear lever.
On the couple of occasions I lost my footing & dropped the bike
they were the first to touch the ground, also kept the bike off me,only leaving scrap marks on the mirrors & bar end weights they also gave you that split second to hit the red button.(Stopped both times missed footing)
Looking at the crash bars fitted to the Vee & the Wee I'm not sure what they are going to protect.
Looks like the Tank will be safe but the Rider :limp: , brake pedal & gear shift?
Question's are
1. Will they keep the bike off your legs if you drop it.(if stopped, not sliding down the road at 30 mph)
2. Will they save the waterpump as looking at some of the pictures the pump looks to stick out further than the bars.
3. Are they worth buying.
4. If so which ones to buy.
5. Or would the bolt on crash bungs or sliders be better.
Like the look of the Suzuki crash bars but still not available.
All advice welcome, thanks in advance.
