    Handguards on varadero

    Hiya all

    I am wanting to put some new handguards on the varadero
    anyone out there recommend the best?

    I wanted them to fully protect unlike the oem ones on
    now I also would prefer them without advertising on them! Fussy bugger or what

    Nope, you can either advertise for Touratech or advertise for Ascerbis:
    Touratech UK Webshop

    2001 Transalp XLV650. Faithful old friend still chugging away nearly 100,00miles
    2007 Varadero XLV1000. Now you're torquing but sadly gone to another forum member. One of the best bikes - period.

    I can't believe the prices on both those models, scary? Good god!

    I found plain black ones at a more reasonable price, still a lot of money but at least I didn't start swearing at the screen!

    Same as above 1150 fitted with no great troubles I have fitted extra bar endweights though to give a bit more room for the levers
    (1200 guards will not fit)
    no adverts or writing and a good wrap around
