Default R&G Bungs vs. Suzuki

I know this has been covered to death, but here I go anyway!

I bought a K9 pointy with fairing lowers a couple of months ago which came with the Suzuki crash bungs, great at the time. However now I have the money I was wondering if it was worth swapping these for an R&G set, both are around £80 and if I didn't have any I would go for the R&G's, however is there a notable difference, thanks!

get R&G. the suzuki ones are nothing but a token trinket and do nothing in event of an off. in fact the suzuki ones will wreck your fairings.

Got myself a set of r&g based on the crash testimonials of the orgers who have dropped, slid, banged and scraped their rides but i couldn't comment on the effectiveness of a suzuki set.
