Radiator Guards and Things to Look Out For

[flatfour]

I've had the R&G guard fitted by the dealer. Nice product, good fit but they did spend an hour fitting it, rather than the "ten minutes" first thought. Charged only half of that though! At the same time, I also had a front mudguard extender fitted.

The radiator guard on my GTR certainly shows no signs of movement!

Blimey FF.....an hour to fit...... good job they only charged you half that time, did the fitting time include the fender extender too ?

A wise move to have these items fitted I reckon 

here's the fitting instructions from R & G


•  Place the 6 pads on the reverse side of the radiator guard, 3 across the top and bottom,
between the radiator guard and the radiator.
•  Bolt the bottom up to the radiator mounting bracket with the original bolt. Place the zip ties
through the top mounting holes and tighten.[/b]

I have a FOX RACING guard on my bike that fitted exactly like this. Mine came with 12 pads ( 3 for top and bottom and 3 for each side ). Fits perfectly and no "rubbing" issues.

They fitted the "Fenda Extenda" for free, in fact. This dealer does the MOT's for all of my old classics, and I was there waiting for the rad guard to be fitted. The tech concerned is no slouch, but it did take him the full hour!

All that matters is that the bike has some extra protection and that you are pleased with the job.

Seems like a good result to me
