Bike fell on its side breaking the aluminium fixing holding the hand guard to
the bar end.The dealer said he's had another one with the same problem.
He told me you can't get the sheared fixing out, and would I like some new
bars £ 90 please+ labour and new hardware for the hand guard.Err ! No thanks.
I thought the part has been spannered on its got to come off. It can be
persuaded to come out. The bar ends are threaded inside and the part screws
into them. Trouble is you can't buy the part seperate from the bars..
The issue may not be a problem with more substantial hand guards .
With some thought you can successfully bodge it and make it stronger
than the original part.
