engine bars

[davsato]

hi all, merry christmas, happy new year and all that,

i got some pennies from santa and i want some engine/crash bars for my '07 varadero.
who makes them and who does the best looking, easiest to fit and strongest?

[davsato]

ive had a look around, they seem to be SW motech, that look a bit flimsy, H+B look the best, givi dont look so hot but look the strongest.

anyone got any advice?

yes they are the sw-motech bars, they dont have much support on the varadero

I think Stanbloke has the Givis on his 07 Vara....ask him how they hold up, he's "tested" them a few times already!

As a general aside, Hepco & Becker stuff is very well made so you'd preobably not go very far wrong with them if you chose to go down that route.
