Which are the best value crash bars, some appear a bit of a job to fix, which I don't mind, unless there are some out there that aren't , also, do you need pannier guards as well?  :undecided:

R&G fitted to my bike, simply the best out there.
Ducati owner now but I used to have a Black one, the fastest version.

I've got r-g and I think that they look the best ,,crash wise don't know how good they would be in a slide down the road  but going by their other products I'm sure they would be up to the job ,

R&G for me as well.  I had a low/no speed drop on a 3in1 hairpin and went down to the left.  Bars too all the weight without any deforming and completely saved the fairing panels.  (I did lose a mirror though).  Luckily didn't have the panniers on at the time....

People seem to have ignored the fact you have an original GTR.

I don't believe R&G make bars for the original GTR, just the "mkII" version.

They do make crash bungs, which involves drilling holes through the fairing panels; something I was never a fan of.

I went with these: http://projektd.com/product_info.php?cPath=27_39_40&products_id=71

Fast delivery, perfect fit, and no drilling required.

Best of luck whatever you go with.

Cheers

Thanks PaulB saved me a lot of time and money, it doesn't appear their bars fit before 2010
