FLrider Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Anyone have any experience with these? Any comments, recommendations? Apparently made out of nylon. I like the coverage they provide. More than most I've seen. http://machineartmoto.com/shopsite_sc/XHDOHC.html Link to comment
Bernie Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Friend of mine installed a set on his 12GS. And to dress it up, he velcroed a set of knee bucs on top of them. Looks kinda funny. Link to comment
BerndM Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I have a set on my 05 RT. They look GREAT. Better than ANY of the others I've ever seen. I had them on my 06 R1200GS before but took them off when I sold the bike. The appear to be very substantial although I'd rather not find out Link to comment
tallman Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 They will cause your cylinders to overheat and melt leaving you stranded. Way too much coverage. Link to comment
RockBottom Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I was just looking at them at the MOA rally. Thought about it, but decided no since I'd just bought a new helmet. Link to comment

Bernie Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Knee bucs are the hard plastic knee sliders, motorcycle racer have stuck to there knees. He velcroed his old set to the MotoArt head protectors. I get a picture next time we ride together. Link to comment
