I just placed my order with twisted throttle. They told me they are expecting 4 to come in June 17th. One was already taken (my best guess is it is going to wildezt ) Now one will be sent to me as soon as they get them in. The product total was $152.50 and the shipping to me in California was $15 How do I go about ordering these?

RE: Engine Guards / Crash Bars - wildezt_imp - 06-02-2013 Another option has now showed up on moto machines. http://www.motomachines.com/Engine-Guard--Honda-CB-1100-from-2013_p_3178.html another 100 bucks more, not sure wheter it would hold up as good as the motech one though. it takes bit sometimes for that webpage to load. RE: Engine Guards / Crash Bars - redReno_imp - 06-02-2013 I noticed them when looking at that link from Nitro's thread. [url=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/194/8964659f6790380847b8db2.png/] ![]() They look VERY nice imo, I wonder how they look on our engines..... thinking about canceling my order with twisted throttle and placing one with moto machines for these . $100 more though? ![]() Well, I have a few weeks to decide but I think my mind is already made up. I'll try to hold off at least for a few days so I can say it wasn't an....impulse order-swap...? RE: Engine Guards / Crash Bars - FUZZY_imp - 06-03-2013 Woo Hoo!! Got mine name on the last set coming in on 17th @ TT!

RE: Engine Guards / Crash Bars - Scoobynut_imp - 06-04-2013 The mounting system for the motomachines ones (I'm assuming they're Hepco-Becker) doesn't look nearly as stout as the SW Motech ones. The H-B don't use the two bosses/bolts on both side of the frame as the Motechs do, and also the H-B lower mount leaves the guard mounted above the frame, which I would think would make the bar tend to move inward in a hard enough hit, whereas the Motech ones align with the frame which no doubt gives them additional resistance to movement in a fall or crash. Of course I'm just eyeballing them, but that's how they appear to me. RE: Engine Guards / Crash Bars - wildezt_imp - 06-04-2013 (06-03-2013, 05:03 AM)FUZZY_imp Wrote: Woo Hoo!!

Agreed, also the SW motech ones has 3 points of attachment too. |
