Cash bungs- which ones?
Just a quick one.
I have been looking at crash bungs to protect my bike. There's a huge variation in price! I can get some off ebay for £16.99 or R&G want £79.99 for theirs. To be fair the cheaper unbranded ones on ebay look the same as the r&g ones! is there any difference??? except extortionate price? I have fully faired sv650s k6 f anyone knows of any decent products going at a reasonable price. Thanks... |

Re: Cash bungs
The R and G ones are ok, but tend to snap rather than bend. They are more 'drop protectors'.
I've got a set of motosliders, although i've never crashed on them, people say they are the best crash bungs for the SV. Google Motosliders or have a look on ebay.

Re: Cash bungs
Moto slider crash bungs are the best, although I don't know if you have to cut the fairing on yours to fit them
Don't buy cheap as they won't do the job I've got R&G ones, which cost me £64, only because I don't6 need to cut my fairing lowers to fit them http://www.motosliders.com/MS-1.html You can find them on Ebay too

Re: Cash bungs
Motosliders FTW.
You can get both the framesliders and the swingarm bobbins from the US delivered within a week for the same price as a set of R&Gs frames only, pretty much.

Re: Cash bungs- which ones?
The R & G ones worked well on my bike when my step- son low sided it, just had to replace the gear lever, everything else was fine except for the bung which has worn down a touch!

Motosliders- cheaper than R&G and better design. Cheapo ones and anything made of aluminium are worth nowt.
