These are good

Saved amarko5's bike after a spill

Plus you get free replacement 'pucks' if you do have a fall

You can order 'em from here

BTW... These are what I've fitted on my bike too

With the £GBP being good against the $USD, they're really good value

had my dealer fit r and g's when bought the bike; they took out the existing bolt and replaced with a wider bolt and gave me the original bolt back. Thus the bungs stick out further than with the original shorter bolt. They reckon this gives best protection.

The R&Gs always come with a replacement bolt mate, that's how they work. And they do work, or at least, mine meant that the only damage to the bike when I binned it at 60 was a broken front brake lever, ground down rear lever, and bent rear subframe (passenger footpeg bent back). Would have just been the subframe and rear brake if it had stayed out of the gravel... The bung was ground down about half way

Machine Mart sell a moderately accurate large value torque wrench for £15, mine has served me well...

Oh ay, I'll just take this quick opportunity to diss Motrax's DHB's again, if they're all the same as mine then you'd be better tying a balloon to the side of your bike, it'll give you as much protection as the RHS bung...

The fact that so many racers use R&G should be testament enough.

Only, I wonder if those racers pay their £80 or if R&G are giving them out as cheap advertising

There's other brands that are probably just as good, but personally I think the R&Gs look as good as bungs can be made to be, and the range of other products means you can have uite a good cohesive look... Which I like.
