Help wanted with engine bars

[Paulghost]

Hi everyone. Which crash bars and sump guard is best for 19 Reg 650. I like T Rex. Any experience?

[Keith60]

Need.  No question, at least for the crash bars! 

[Rusty Nuts]

Or Heed,  maybe.

[Keith60]

Heed it is!! .   

[Paulghost]

Thank you they look good  have you tried them

[user650]

Another vote for Heed, I've had them fitted to two of my vstrom's up to now, one even got test crashed 

[Paulghost]

Thank you  user650 :

[vstroman]

Think you Need Heed
I'd go with the Suzuki plastic sump guard if it's available for that model unless you are going to do serious off roading.

[user650]

A bit like this ....

[Asmith61]

Another shout for heed I know mine is the older model but great piece of kit

[Keith60]

Fitted them on mine.  Easy fit, robust and no wind noise.

I fitted heed to my 2016 650 & had bad vibration that I just could not cure . Tried everything ..but..in the end went for Suzuki,s own engine bars and vibration went ...???.

Givi  crash bars on mine........no problems....

[Paulghost]

Thank you very much everyone. Great response to my first post. Great forum. Still trying to get some feedback on the T-Rex bars though I know they're expensive. I do intend to do a lot of bad roads.

Suzuki's own bars on mine. They are perfect.

Check the above topic before deciding. If they bolt on as shown in the first post you could have problems if you drop it. PM me for details

    That"s a point I missed when you posted your 'leaking engine bar' thread the first time roganjoshing. They are Suzuki bars (I believe) and fit to the main engine support bolts. Heed bars for mine fit to the engine fixing bracket and into the frame only.

A point worthy of note when choosing for yours Paulghost..........
