RE: Engine guards

I have the SW Motech, and am very pleased with them. I think that engine guards regardless of brand ( assuming they are well made ) is a good investment. On the one hand, the guards will drastically ( in my experience ) reduce damage to the bike if it goes down. On the other hand, if you are on the bike when it goes down, it will be easier for you to get out from under it.

When I bough mine, one of the things I looked at was how various guards mounted to the bike. Back in the day, I had guards on my CB750 Four. Those guards bolted on at two points. One light low speed drop did its job, but the guard was bent backwards, making it un-usable from the on. The SW Motech, as well as some others, mount at three points to the bike. If you decide to go SW Motech, check out this thread on mounting bolt torque. http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=8360
