I bought the R&G ones after I highsided my SL (horse, stable and all that...)

Despite speaking to R&G on the phone they didn't fit.. The mounting bolt rather than being one long bolt came as two separate studs. They eventually, after much p-ing around, made up a long stud that fitted all the way through for me.

I think they'd do the job up to a point (along with a strong billet clutch cover) but you'd get to a point where they'd end up being fairly useless. Saying that buy the time they bend the frame the bikes probably going to be so knackered it'd be irrelevant anyway.

Would I buy the R&G ones again... no. Would I buy mushrooms again.. yes.
