Hand Guards

Post by Phasec »

Ladies/ Gents and undisclosed
Thinking of fitting hand guards to the new Forza any recommendations for a set of single mount point ones or would the over mittens be better?

Ride safe

I and many other have used these for some time and they stop a lot of the wind : https://tinyurl.com/yc9twohw
There is an amendment for the ones above, but seems to cost a bit more that the handguards themselves, but looks good to stop more wind and most of the rain! https://tinyurl.com/y6updz2t
I see there are alternatives now: https://tinyurl.com/y7xnx8mv

Barkbuster Storm handguards on my Forza (2014 model) and they fit to the end of the handlebars. They work well and keep the cold out. The part number of the kit is STM-007 and they are £49.95 from Chainspeed.

Yes, they're are good quality.
When consumers purchase a HONDA, they are not simply purchasing a car, truck or van. They are placing their trust in our company.

Can anyone post a picture of how their Barkbusters Storm handguards look when installed? I just got a set but there are so many options for the hardware that I have no idea what to put where and the instructions are less than clear and not specific to the bike at all. Do I end up using the stock bar ends that were on it? Help!

On a PCX I didn't use the stock bar ends.

Thanks, that was very helpful. I got it figured out, I think ultimately it was just option A on the instructions and it did not work well with the factory bar ends so I left them off. Those things are WAY heavier than what the Barkbusters came with, will that make any difference?

I didn't notice any difference. Been on for 6 years.
