We (my husband and I)are about to embark on a big trip (10K Miles) this includes off road sections as well. The Barkbusters Handguards are a big part of this trip. We have upgraded many components on our motorcycle; for safety, reduce breakage, and be protected through inclement weather. The Barkbusters are a must have. They were easy to install, there are Youtube barkbuster install videos to follow which helps a lot. It took about 30 minutes for for the first one, once we knew how, the second one went really fast. They look great on the bike as well. I am ready to ride!
