Were you riding in the snow at the time?
I have HB crash bars but on a 1200GS and they are the best investment I've bought for the bike (with the exception of the headlight protector and TT bashplate) well worth every cent.
I did scratch the cyclinder head even with the HB bars when I laid it down in Cambodia on gravel roads, the bars dug in a bit and the gravel scratched the cylinder head but it is only cosmetic damage. They've saved my feet from stray dogs and other obstacles also, whatever you get just bite the bullet and get them straight away.
