    As Drew said universal = cheap (but not really) I think they are a good idea and I wouldn't mind some, might have to look a little deeper.

    I wasn't very clear. Bark busters come with a bunch of assembly methods, and spare parts to get as many possible fitments as they can conceive.

    Hand guards are magic to ride with. Toastie warm hands is first on my check list, when asking myself if I enjoyed a ride. Followed closely by, "did I crash"? But I've been on heaps more rides and crashed, and enjoyed the ride, than when my hands were numb.

    I put some of these on the 1125.

    They should fit pretty much anything with clear access to the bar ends. Not a safety device, but they take the chill off and you can fit 'em with nice blingy LEDs which I reckon help with conspi... conspik... idiots seeing you.

    Got my gloves tonight. But not before riding all the way to Taupo in the rain, sigh... and I need boots sooner than I thought. My boots were soaked through, well and truly, socks dripping when I took them off. And now I'm thinking new pants too... waterproof!
    Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it.

    What, no plastic bags??

    And as for waterproof motorcycle pants, they're a myth, I tells ya, like the loch ness monster or big foot, except in a far off land where everything is made of goretex and everyone can afford $1000 + pants...

    Rainsuit?
