Crash protection R&G, other options?

[struan80]

Hi,

Going to fit some crash protectors to 1999 R6 5eb. Is R&G the way to go? Seen some cheaper on ebay but not sure about quality.

It's quite expensive for full bifter kit, with front rear muchrooms but worth it I guess or is it really? My cheap track bike is growing arms and legs with costs at the moment. Oh what a surprise ehh

Nylon is a good material and same that they use in mushrooms and fairings. I have made bar ends with it.

For a frame slider, mushroom shape is shit, it needs a bigger surface and offset mounts away from the impact area. Fairings are very good, but expensive.

Mushrooms mounted direct to frame with a horizontal bolt will usually snap off for anything other than low speed/stationary drops. R&G bolts are made of compressed poo, supposed to snap rather than dent frame.


Get some cheap ebay fairings for track.
