Hand Guards
« on: May 29, 2005, 03:46:14 AM »
Has anyone fitted hand Guards on their Bandit? On the old site there was some discussion of someone fitting DL1000 V-Strom hand guards on their Bandit. Just wondering how did it work out??
Did anyone do something different? Any suggestions? I need some idears.
Thanks. Kyle 97 B12 Iowa

The V-Strom hand guard trick made its way to this board too... it's in the 600/1200 FAQ, right here.  :grin:

There are many hand guards for dirt bikes which would fit the bandit as it has standard bars, not clip ons.  Try Acerbis or UFO.  Check with a shop that has Tucker Rocky distributing for them.  They have a catalog with all the brands.

I recently fitted a set of KTM 950 Adventure handguards (because they were free!)  They don't fit exactly, but the plastic bends!
That's impressive,
and I'm not easily impressed.
