I dropped it and the right one bend a bit… these are really some good quality strong tank guards.. dropped it on a hill climb . It was like a 5ft straight drop .. and the guard took it real nice . No damage to the handle . But there’s only one concern about the lower levers like brake , gear … they do get the damage .
Rally guards do not have drainage holes, because of short-term and very specific use. After the event (rally) it's supposed to be opened and cleaned. For continuous use, the bash plate needs to have opening from which water, mud, dirt can also escape.
Yes I am aware of it and hence the design allows you to remove just the bash plate in a matter of seconds . The sad part is that this can never really be a true rally guard as far as material gauge goes . It will get torn by sharp rocks without a doubt .
Thanks Ben, but do you think this guard offers enough engine and fall protection to the bike and leg protection? I also want to go with the Company accessory rather than the stuff available in the market but not sure about the protection this offers. Drop test??
@harshadramekar my friend got the MotoTorque guard with sliders....if you like the sliders go with it, it's good forn5-6k However, I personally did not like its visual aspect, it blocks the view of the engine. On the other hand The RE rally guard and bash is sleek yet offers complete protection for 9950rs.
@@ONTWOWHEELSBEN I actually like autoengina for crash guards but they just straight away disappointed with design . Not only them , every other manufacturer doing the same .
they should be making them in plastic, just a better solution - ran plastic on my 500 ktm and it takes everything and i bet my house i ride harder and rockier terrainthan any himmy rider - plaastic is the way 4ward, not aluminium
