      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.

        @calum had them on another bike minus the LEDs. I like the carbon though!

          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

                    @finnerz89 I had the Bark Busters Storm hand guards on my DTR;

                    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;

                    SEDUCED BY THE DARK SIDE!!!

                      Carbon wrap maybe the way to go I think.

                      Cheers fellas
