A very stylish hand guard
So I bought these hand guards for my 07' YFZ450. The hand guards are awesome looking, I feel like these were made for the 450 just because of the lines and the style of the guards, they match with the lines of the 450s' in my opinion. The way they mount is indeed cleaver, BUT, the fact that the only part they mount to is your handle bar end makes it very easy for them to move up and down, no matter how tight i tightened the bolts on the ends i was still able to barely move the guards up and down. To me this is really no big deal but it could be to some. Would i recommend this to a friend or fellow rider, yes. But not before I explain this flaw. All in all, they do a great job protecting my hands, I've hit some pretty good size branches and they are deflected pretty smoothly. And on the sand I can ride with no gloves and not feel like my hands are being sand blasted.
