Default Re: Fitting Acerbis handguards!

Most have an insert to fit up a tubular bar end, however you can ignore that bit and just use a bolt into the screw thread that's there, if you're thinking of them as wind deflectors then I'd say go for the light plastic type, but if you're after some with the thick metal bar for protection as well, then try some of these and save yourself £25 or so over Acerbis one ( I know I just fitted some myself).

Cheers Mark.

No bothere about the metal bar, want them for looks rather than protection!

Thanks
