I am looking for some crash bungs for my bike but want some good ones but for around 30 quid?

I have DHM (dual hard mushroom) crash bungs on mine which seem pretty sturdy to me, I think you can get them for 35 quid Thumbs Up

I keep hearing about R&G being so superior... but I mean come on, its a lump of plastic attached to a short metal stem, how different can it be? I'm skeptical about how much of it is just marketing spin.

GET R&G AND NOTHING ELSE!

EVERYTHING ELSE IS CRAP, IT HAS SAVED MY BIKE AND MY MATES FROM SERIOUS DAMAGE IN THE PAST!

R&G ALL THE WAY

R&G saved my ass when i highsided my Thundercat a few years ago and i've had R&G's on every bike since.

for 15 quid difference between the best crash bungs and the worst, why are you even asking?? Shocked

Dunno about naked bikes arent you better off with a bar around the engine, even though it looks ugly?

For sports bikes the R&Gs cost £45-£55 from most bike shops.

Oh i forgot to mention that with R&G you may need to drill a hole in the fairing where it bolts into frame or engine depending on which bike you have.

Its sounds bad but its not.

Hornet R and G's definately work.

Jay12329's hornet has crashed more times than a ZX81 and it still goes as well as the day he bought it.

Only damage is a bit of scuffing on the R and G's.
