can someone please recommend crash bungs for a monster. Will they protect the tank if it gets knocked over in the street?

Thanks

Kirsty has R&G ones on her monster, Not saying they are used a lot (twice in one day) but they have done the job very well, Not a mark on the bike.

Seconded, R&G are the ones to get. I tried some Motrax DHB ones to begin with and they were rubbish, the mushroom shattered and disappeared immediately on contact with tarmac. The R&Gs on my current DD monster have been down 3 times, all at considerable speed, and the tank is undamaged on the sides. Did their job well and still useable.

But beware what year is your monster?

They dont do them for for the pre 1998's

Yeah definately the R&G ones, little bit more than the motrax ones, but are worth it.

Well i think not as production are making a set for me and have not done it yet.

Maybe the 900ss ones fit but theearly monster you can't push the rod through.

I've had a set on the 900 monster and a set on the 600 monster all year, bought directly from R&G and they keep them in stock.
