What levers do you have on that? Also I was looking to add the guard extender to my stock hand guards but can’t seem to find just the extension. Anybody know where I can find some?

They are generic agv/pazzo ripoffs from amazon. Been amazing though. Just as good as the real pazzos i had on a previous bike.

Hi, do you happen to have the bark buster part numbers? I need some too :)
Yes, but you should know that they changed when the bike updated in 2014, so the model
I have fits my 2013. It should fit 2010-2013.

In 2014 the design changed to no longer reuse the factory bar end weights.

The brackets (2010-2013): BHG-040-03-NP

Then you also buy whatever guards you want, and those are basically universal. I belive vps, storm, and jet may all fit this bracket set.

Today I picked my T12 up.
It had tipped over after a friendly bloke backed his car into it while it was parked in front of my gym.
The OEM crash bar did a fair job. It protected the engine and radiator from damage - but not from several scratch marks all over the left side of the bike: Mirror, handguard, clutch lever, side fairing, side stand, centerstand, front and rear foot pegs, rear foot rest/exhaust bracket.
Besides that the rear fender and license plate will be replaced (that's where the car hit the bike)

The bike runs fin and all of it is superficial damage, but as the other guys insurance will cover it, everything with even the smallest scratch will be replaced. This will be a good opportunity to upgrade from OEM to Barkbusters handguards.

I had my own break in a tip over and zero damage to the cover but scratches to the hand guards. Which to say that you need, "real guards" is a lie. Basically you use some guards stick out over then the side covers. The oems might not do this but do offer some protection in harder hits towards the top of the covers.

That why I am using these. Compact, with just that little extra protection.
Those are what mine has too! Work pretty good until the wheels get pointed toward the sky. They are sturdy. Panel access remains pretty good.

I ended up replacing a couple of the allen head bolts with some hex heads as I couldn't get an allen socket in them. (I had to remove them for the valve adjustment.) Next time I may try to leave the left one on, and just remove the engine mount bolt.

Well they weren't straight up. Just angled up. No major panel damage, but some cosmetic beauty marks. Reminders of the adventure.

My horn beeped its last beep today, is there a way to mount the soundbomb in the OEM location? mounting on the RHS of the engine case doesn't appeal

If you dont have lights there, you have a lot of space to clear the fender. You would likely have to fabricate a bracket, but that should be easy. Also not sure if the factory horn circuit will power the denali, you may want to run a relay.

Cheers both, I do have the factory fog lamps under the headlights so I think moving the toolkit under the seat & popping the compressor for the two part denali into it's space is the way I'll go.

I scratched both sides up. I did the right side when is wasn’t a month old. I ordered a new one then. I scratched the left side about week ago in another tip over.

Im considering seeing if both side panels can be vinyl wrapped? If so my color and pattern options are unlimited.... I think.
I’ll let you know.
Digital camo in blue and silver on my 2017 model??? A flag pattern?? Solid blue??

I would recommend using a design that they already have in their computer. That way, all you're paying for is the vinyl and application labor. They can make anything you can think up, but they will charge you a design/development fee. Vinyl wrapping is the way to go, and it's relatively inexpensive.
