Bodywork protection

[JohnnieBoy]

Hi again, ladies and gents.

Taking delivery of my 08 Sprint ST (Graphite, the new fastest colour) in March, and I've almost decided to fit protective bobbins on fairing and swinging arm.

Any reason for me not to fit them, and which ones should I buy?

All comments and criticisms will be happily received.

Good to be part of this great organisation!

These make good crash bobbins:

+1 on the R&G. I put them to the test this weekend. They work.

Thanks both. I'll have a look at the site.

I prefer the LSL frame sliders, they fit the look a bit better. I bought mine through a local distributer for spiegler performance.

Have not tested and they certainly are large, but happy with that!

Check my Photo gallery, no time now to paste link. Got to get to work!

Ditto re the LSLs......and I have tested them.

I put the R&G on mine. They are very well made and look quite sturdy but I haven't tried them yet. The only problem is they partially block access to the clutch cable adjusters on the engine. Not a big problem. What i do like is the bobbins are not mounted directly to the engine mounting tabs. I've seen pics where these tabs were broken = $$$$$
