Hello, I am interested,
I ride evenings in the mountains. I have lot of bug hits, small limbs sticks on backroads, and get caught in the rain alot. As well as looking for more wind protection . Its cold already in the mornings going to work . I dont like bulky gloves, thus the need for better handguards over stock

OK I'm not us based over here in the UK, had some previously from you gotta say they do the job, did have to drill a small hole and add a cable tie just in case, at high speed I did have one come loose but it never came off hence the cable tie. If you want me to test some in UK weather let me know 20220924_152128.jpg20220924_152113.jpg

I have a set of them and like them a lot. I did have the right one blow off at 90 MPH. Luckily I had drilled a small hole and looped a tie-wrap through so I didn’t loose it, but it sustained a crack when it went flapping about in the wind.

That happened to me. That's when you know how well they work when you have one still on and one hand being blasted at motorway speeds! I bought a second set and drilled and bolted them on with tiny stainless nut and bolts.
