Will not fit 1 1/8 " tapered handlebars!

I installed these handguards on my 2007 Honda XR650L. They are very similar to the Cycra Probed Alloy Guards. They are 10 x 20mm Made of aluminum and appear to be quite strong they also have enough room for the levers on my bike I didn't have to move the lever tabs inwards or cut the balls off the ends of the levers like many other handguards require you to do. Clamps on the end of the bar are cheaply made and not knurled but seem to grip the bars well.The expansion slots on the clamps appear to have been cut with a hacksaw - and not very straight! Might be worth getting a set of Tusk D's -Flex clamps for the bar ends if that bothers you.The main issue with these handguards is the handlebar clamps.Although they use the included plastic fine sets will fit a 7/8" handlebar, I'm not sure how well they will hold up when you apply force. Aluminum halves might be the best option here. They are NOT to be used with 1-1/8" handlebars! The handlebar holes are cut straight for a 28mm diameter where the clamps attach, so there is no way to tighten the clamps! I have those Tapered adapter printed on my 3D printer as a temporary measure but will be using a spare set of Cycra/Tusk clamps to replace them.So these handguards looked really promising but the custom design and production let them down.If you replacing the hardware you will almost double the price, so just buy a known brand.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • The list goes on.
