The price varies hugely from bike to bike.

My GSXR400 was around £40, the hornet 6 was £70.


I would have thought the cheapest place would be direct from R&G.

R & G products don't come cheap anywhere. I've not seen any place online or otherwise that sells them at a significant discount.
Only place is Ebay where you might pick up a good second hand item.

I bought my crash bungs from here https://www.loscrashprotection.com/index.htm
The quality was top notch. I couldn't fault it at all.

Ebay


Hi

Many thanks for your message.

We can advise that the crash protectors are £70.00 and the tri-oval exhaust protectors are £24.99 each. If you buy all 3 items, the cost would be £119.80 plus postage. Assuming that you want delivery to the UK, you would qualify for a postage discount which would make the postage £10.85.

Whilst we can not discount the product, if you buy all 3 items together, we would throw in some freebies like a set of cozy wraps!

Let us know if you are interested and we can get the crash protecyors added to the store straight away.

Regards
The R&G Racing Team

You'd think. Depending on how good a relationship you've got with your mechanic, it might be cheaper to get them to order them for you. I saved 20% by doing this.
