Hi 

I am looking for a second hand chain guard if possible for my 2007 gs650. I know some of you ride without it but it is a safety issue for me. 

Touratech prices are a bit steep for me. I believe you get a mototech one for +- R670 but it is for the newer models (twin piston).

Hi

We are busy with the design and manufacture of various items for the adventure bike market. These will include chain and brake cylinder guards, engine protection, pannier frames and alumimium boxes etc. etc. All steel items will be TIG welded and powder coated. Aluminium will be powder coated or anodized. (have not made final discision yet) Initially we design all items for our own use (650 singles) but could design and manufacture items for any bike.

We are also looking at lightweight stretcher, clip on backrest for the three legged stool and other camping items. 

Feel free to contact us with your requests and ideas.  All prices will be ex factory.

Are you taking orders Adie?

I'd like a cross bar for those 800 handlebars you have (hopefully straight by now), that should make them a little less like butter.

Cool Mike - thanks

I'll have a look at anything you make for the 650's (just not hard luggage), then I can "update" the wifes bike and tell her it's the same as getting a new bike Wink.

Good luck with this endevour, I hope it is a success for you.

Please continue

We need a market that can cater for our needs - "cheap" aftermarket parts.

I made my own chain guard in the meantime but would like to see what you come up with.
