Does anybody know of a make of crash bungs to fit a curvy with fairing lowers, that you do not have to cut the fairing to make them fit? Has anybody experiance of other makes than RG?

I don't think you have to cut the fairing for the new R&Gs

R&G are the only ones that work without cutting lowers, as far as I'm aware.

Yup. I got the R & Gs you're talking about a while ago. You can order them on the website or just go to a local dealer and they'll order them for you.

They cost me 70 quid, not cheap, but less than the cost of repairs they will prevent

You'll need to remove your engine bolts and replace them with the ones they provide. Took me about 2 hours to do.

Yeha... I don't rate the R&Gs to be honest, but that's not a universal opinion. I found them too fragile, and too expensive to replace bits for, but opinions vary. If it were me, I'd get Motosliders and cut the fairings.

Do those just bolt into the Suzuki brackets? It's the brackets that make the SV ones so hopeless...
