    Can anyone recommend some for the DT?

    Pics of what you have fitted would be handy (no pun intended)

    I bought some acerbis ones.

    But stripped them and replaced most of the components.

    They come with just plastic trim, then found a company that makes carbon fibre wraps.

    Then bought the LED inserts from acerbis.

    Then put it all together.

    I have some Acerbis X-Force ones which I think go really well with the bike, These ones also don't need to go into the handle bars (https://www.dirtbikexpress.co.uk/bike_parts/motocross_handguards/acerbis_motocross_handguards/acerbis_x_force_handguards)

    I stripped a cheap pair and polished the aluminium. Pretty satisfied.

    You need them for the look or for the protection?
    For protection offroad: Get something with a piece of aluminium all the way, and it absolutely needs to be mounted to the bar-end to have stregth.

    Just look at what is used at enduroraces, theese things arent bike specific as such.

    @jens-eskildsen bit of both. Definitely want some aluminium, windshields would be a bonus as well

    Best handies for maximum protection, not cheap mind (£105), but definitely the most awesome. UFO make an ali & plastic set, which are alot cheaper;

    You can find em on ebay for £60. When I sold my bike I wanted to keep the Barkies, so I put a cheap pair of Polisport plastic ones on, which I wrapped in carbon fibre film. They looked trick and the bike still looked mint with those on;
