Looking for some handguards for my 690 which offer better protection than the standard plastic ones.
Any recomendations? How about these (http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/barkbusters-storm-handguard-kit-for-tapered-handlebars).?
Need something where the mounts don't interfere with the cables.
Thanks

I'm a fan, very good wind/rain protection. Here's my review/photos on them:

The Egos are also good, but nowhere near as much weather protection:

And these are ones I am not really a fan of:

Those do look pretty good. Does the mounting plate obscure the instrument panel (looks a bit like it in some of the photos I've seen)?

I have bar risers and steering damper you can see the speedo but slightly covers the lights below doesn't cause any issues , on my centre plate I have on/off switches for USB charger & heated grips its a good set up.

Ok Cheers. So without risers it would probably not cover instruments much at all I guess.
