Got a reply from Top Block.... 525 Euro posted   

That works out something like £470   

Anyway... now got a pair of R&G Aero bungs...  A third of the price... hopefully at least half the protection

As I saved £105 on my insurance today with Auntie Carol £180.76 instead of the renewal of £284.50 I decided to splash out on some R&G Adventure bars, being a cheeky git I emailed a company on eBay who were selling them for £199 and offered £185, they said yes and the deal was done.

A happy chappy am I.

 I`m interested in a set of  Canyon Cages for my 2008 GTR 1400 which has been lowered by about 2cm or 20mm.
Has anyone fitted them to a lowered GTR? Will there be enough ground clearance when she`s lent over?

The lowered bike should not be a problem as it's the entire bike that is lower to the ground, hero pegs, mirrors, and guards included. This means that the point in which they hit the ground changes slightly, not the order in which they hit meaning the guards will still work as intended. So, your lean angle may be slightly affected (which it always is with a lowered bike, with or without fairing protection) but the guards themselves won't make the lean angle any worse. The only reason the lean angle is affected at all is because you've made the parts that scrape first even lower/closer to the ground. We design our guards so the hero peg (that little nub that stick out the bottom of the pegs) is the first thing to scrape followed by the guard itself which holds everything else off the ground including the exhaust, mirrors, handle bars, etc. This relation does not change regardless of bike height. We design our accessories this way because the hero peg is a sort of warning system to tell you that you're leaned very far over and getting close to the cages. So, if you're happy with your lean capabilities with the lowered bike without the protection, you'll be happy with it with the protection as the protection itself won't effect your lean angle capabilities.

I know the front and rear shipped to the UK for myself is coming in at around £400 - Ryan's guys are in the process of manufacturing a set for me currently.

Thanks for that Ryan, will have to give these cages some serious thought

  Sent an email to R&G racing products to see if they have any plans on producing some adventure bars for the GTR1400 2008 model  in the near future, similar to the 2010 bars.
This was their reply:

"We are looking in to this at the moment and hopefully they will be ready within a few months.

Best bet is to keep an eye on the website."

So might hang back on the Canyon`s for the time been and see what R&G come up with.
