Wanted UK/London BMW F650GS 2004 Crash Bars
Hi All,
Am pretty sure I'll be dropping my bike all over the place at slow speeds and want to protect the important bits. But Crash Bars are pricey so was wondering if anyone had some lying around they want to sell?
Any brand considered as I haven't made up my mind which are best (  ) and anythng is better than nothing.
Thanks!

Not sure if you really need them, i dont have a 650GS but a DRZ i drop very often and with good handguards, levers that bend back, sump bash plate (+ case savers as DRZ's are weak) and rad guards i have had no issues at all
The above protectors the important bits the rest you can just fix with gaffer tape or a roll of wire....

Hm.... I don't think they fit. Had a look at some pics and it looks completely different to the F650 GS 2004 model 
Thanks though!
