Does anybody have any comments about these products good or bad?
I realise that these are not bash plates in the true sense of the word and are really only designed to stop stones and the like that are flicked up from the front wheel from damaging the engine or oil filter.
The Ducati guard does protect the lower curve of the front exhaust but does nothing to protect the front of the engine up to the cylinder head.
The Evotech guard leaves the exhaust exposed but does offer some protection higher up the front of the engine.
I think the Ducati guard look better but I can't see to many pictures on the Evotech fitted to bikes on line to judge how wide it is or what it actually protects. It looks to offer more protection except the exhaust maybe at the expensive of looking a little agricultural.
We will be fitting one or other guard as the bike will be doing some gravel road work and the small front mudguard won't stop anything being flicked at the engine so all I am trying to do here is get owners thoughts about pos and cons.
Thanks.
