So far they have successfully punched out a indicator cluster and protected my leavers from a low speed spill when a ped walked out in front of me.

No... but at this time he appeared as I was slowly moving past a taxi. He had to jump to avoid my bike taking him out.

Reason being they don't clear the fairing on a GXR front ended pointy

As per title just ask dealer for "DL650 V-Strom handguards " they come with great instructions. I think the DL650 is like the Pointy i.e. all years are basically the same (the guards for the 1000 though are NOT what you want)

The instructions are in this http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.p...ght=handguards

Hmmmm....I ordered some the other Thursday, they arrived the following Thursday, in the meantime I'd called them and they sent another set that arrived on the Friday....so I have 2 sets!

(although I'll be a good citizen and return the 'spare' set obviously)

Easy to fit, though I think I did cut the 'bar end weight' bolt down a touch for the curvy.
