Well its taken lets see hmmmm 4 days and ive dropped it lol. Pulled up outside my exes today and suddenly realise to my horror that i cant touch the floor!!! (curse my lack of stature ) 2 secs later im picking my bike off the tarmac. All i can say is thank god for R&G crash bungs. Such a quality item. a slightly scuffed mirror im replacing next month ne way and a scuffed crash bung (who cares). I recommend these to ne one. IF i hadnt had them fitted could have been looking at trashed radiator and dented tank not to mention the scrapes. And lets face it no matter how experianced someone is little accidents do happen.

Time to think about getting different wishbones to adjust the height of the bike my friend

Yeah i'm getting bungs fitted to my Bandit next wednesday, lets hope it isn't too late hey!

Unlucky, I know the feeling regarding lack of height structure, a slight adjustment of the shock absorber soon fixed that....

Ive been lucky so far, but going to have to invest in some crash bungs soon. Did you have to cut into the plastics to fit?

Not at all i ride a naked sv, and i think u dont have to cut the lowers if u have them on the half faired.

Bad luck mate

One reason I haven't fitted any is that I would need to cut my lowers and I'm afraid of messing it up.

thats true, trickdup had to cut the lowers on his curvy to fit the bungs. The newer sv ones r mounted on a bracket though rather than straight through the engine bolt so they r higher and clear the fairing

good good dude. aslong as the bike still goes, unlike mine

Everyone drops a bike at one stage. Next time use you leg as a crash mushroom, Work just as well

Dood...get the bike lowered

i had the r&g bungs on my last sv,i still have one side of the fairing left from when i crashed it,you can have that if you want clunk to measure up where you need to cut yours if you want

Thanks for the offer watters, but I don't have any plans to fit crash bungs at the moment.

Maybe you should invest in some high heels

^ Lol!!

Anyways unlucky mate i know the feeling dropped my nsr on gravel outside my house, cudn't lift it so got really pissed off and ripped it off the floor, lol
