Engine armour
« on: November 15, 2018, 18:02:28 »
Does anyone have any experience fitting engine armour to their strom?

I've a Gen 2 650 that I'm looking to armour up, no real need, just like the look. R&G have a LHS cover but no RHS. GBracing have nothing officially for the strom but have sv650 covers (both sides) and the secondary water pump cover (mines corroded and ugly). Has anyone gone down this route before? I've included a photo (I think  :shrug: ) which to me looks badass but I have searched and found nothing like it, so I'm assuming prototype.

Still, thoughts and info welcome.

I'd be spending time removing that beak, out of all the V-Strom models with daft, pointless beaks, the Gleek is the daftest of the lot  :bawl:

Do Tesla make 'bikes now?
