    Another Bark Buster Q? for Dr650

    Probably been thrashed a thousand times but all info on a search wasn't quite what I wanted to know.

    What breed of bark buster best fits the DR with the factory bars?, I want the full alloy through with plastic handguard.

    Any help appreciated, many thanks.

    One of the best value is the Zeta from any bike shop.

    i have had no problem with my zeta ones. easy to mount and should fit your bars... the mount is fairly flexible

    i think it was around 100 for the bars and 30 for the plastics handguards - they come in 2 sizes and there are also indicators that you can buy that fit inside the larger handguards

    My zeta indicators have stood up well to repeated dropping. They aren't super bright though, I don't think I'd want to use them as my sole front indicators.

    Looks like it comes down to Zeta or Bark buster brands, unfortunately we don't have a shop that I can go and perv in to have a look.

    I can get the bark buster ones for $120.00 locally plus courier so I might do that, can some swing a pic up of the zetas? .. well if possible bark busters too, interested to seen the mounting etc.

    Cheers men.
