Anyone recommend a set of crash bungs for a K3? Just bought some lowers and dont want the cost of replacement any time soon!

Motosliders from the States seem to be highly rated on the forum, they are reasonably priced and they do a package with swingarm bobbins as well. I am about to order some.

Their website is www.motosliders.com but they are a little cheaper from this site http://www.10bomb.com

R&Gs all the way, expensive but worth it...

Thanks very much for the help!

+1
One of the very few that doesn't require cutting holes in the fairing.
It also replaces the centre fairing bracket, which is known to sometimes snap in an off, which a much bigger/better one.

I already had some motosliders on the black, and I ordered some more from SVracingparts in the states, last week. They arrived this morning. They come for the curvy and pointy and are far superior to R and G, and cheaper, even with carriage from abroad. Oh and if you do come off, they won't crack your frame. They also do the replacement bobbins of you do too.

+1 for R+Gs. saved me too many times and for £100 (fitted) it was well worth it although they don't look the best.

R&Gs are the business. Rock hard mushrooms which are pretty robust and will save the panels when you need it.

About £70. No need to get them fitted, very easy just remove engine bolt and replace.

Motosliders are very good, but need you to dremel / cut your fairing lowers AFAIK. The latest R&Gs fit so that no cutting is required.

I think both products work well from reports on here. So you pays your money....

I remember asking about crash bungs on another thread somewhere. I think I remember being told motosliders were the best but on here it sounds like R+Gs are the ones to go for. I'm well confused now!
