Re: Fixing Hand protectors
There seems to be many expensive hand protectors on the market. IMHO the simpler moulded plastic ones look OK for weather protection but are way too expensive. And as for paying loadsamoney for extra little plastic extension pieces???

You only need to buy them once, they work well.

Re: Fixing Hand protectors
In retrospect I should have bought those. But the Wunderlich ones looked better. I was wrong. Money now refunded but not the £6 plus return postage.

Re-done the inner mounts to allow the guards to be rotated to face more 'downward'. I did another test run at a high speed (on a private track) which confirmed any slight waver of the bars now only occurs when my knees are lazily sticking out and not gripping the fuel tank. Happy with that.
