5.0 out of 5 stars Solid Product, can compete with the big brands
We usually only use Acerbis, Polisport or Cyrca Handguards, however for this ATV we decided lets try something cheaper.There haven't been many reviews or pics on these so hopefully this helps someone out.These handguards came wrapped in shrink wrap, all hardware was there, no instructions (but you cant really mess this install up).The aluminum bar is nice thick, rigid and overall has a very nice feel to it. Note that the surface is finished textured where as others like acerbis usually use a smooth finish. This finish does look just as good.The cups are molded very well, I was expecting sharp mold lines but the quality really surprised us, can be installed without any sanding. The cups are mounted using bolts so they are replaceable or you could ditch them all together if the aluminum bar is enough for your purpose.The clamp is also aluminum, the bolts are adequate for this purpose and the threads are done nicely. I really love that with this system we didnt have to take everything off the handlebars to slide the clamp off like we have to do on the acerbis ones.The sleeve bolts are finished well also, these should work with two different handlebar thicknesses. We ended up using the original sleeve bolt on our original trx450r handlebars, for that we had to bore out the hole on the aluminum bar some using a step drill, very easy.We assembled the guards loosely, pushed them in place and torqued everything down, it was that easy.We havent taken them on the track yet but judging from the materials I have no doubt they will be good enough and last for trail riding.
4.0 out of 5 stars Honda CRF-250 Rally
I installed these on a 2020 Honda CRF-250 Rally in about 45 minutes. Here's what I took away from the install:Pros:Cheap. At just under 30 bucks I figured that these were worth a try.They look nice.They 'seem' to be sturdy. Time will tell.Assembly was fairly straight forward.Cons:They have to be bent to fit this bike. I was able to use my press brake to make the bends, but most people will probably have to resort to a hammer and a vise. The bends in the pictures are circled. There was a VERY slight bend from the factory, but you can see I had to take mine quite a bit further.The bolts that go into the end of the handle bar has a tapered head, but the bars are not countersunk so the head of the bolt doesn't sit flush. Not a big deal, but the manufacturer should have either countersunk the bar or used a pan head bolt.The bar clamps seem to be okay, but the plastic bushing will probably let the clamp roll/twist if hit with much force.Th bolt that goes through the hand guard and into the clamp needs to be about another 1/4" longer. If you use the oblong washer that comes with the kit, you will only get 3 or 4 threads into the clamp. Even with the washer removed, about half of the threads in the clamp are still unused.Hopefully, I never have to test these out, but if I do, I'm a little concerned that these may roll upon impact.Overall, I think that they will keep the levers from getting broken off (unless hit 'just right') and if you don't mind having to do a little bending/modifying, these hand guards are a decent buy at 29 bucks.
5.0 out of 5 stars A good buy with a couple of things to be aware of.
These are great handguards, especially at this price point. However, there are some things to be aware of. First, the finish on the mounting brackets looks cheap so I sanded it off. Second, the allen bolt connecting the bracket to the handguard is too short and could easily strip out so I replaced them with a bolt a quarter inch longer. I painted mine with a textured black finish. Are they comparable to my Cycra Probends on my Beta 500 RRS? No, those cost $140 though. These are a great value at $30, they are sturdy, protect your hands and should hold up to dropping the bike.
1.0 out of 5 stars Quality Worse Than Previous Version
I don't like writing reviews that mean to slander the company but I thought as a returning consumer everyone should know my updated thoughts about this product. I purchased these hand guards once about a year and a couple months ago and they were solid, quality for the price and fit great on my CB300F. Fast forward to present day, the guards protected my bike from two falls and finally the left one bends and becomes unusable but PROTECTED my lights and my clutch levers beautifully. I purchased them again thinking they would match the quality they did previously but I was wrong. What was sent to me was one with much THINNER metal, the plastic was sloppily outlined and looked like it was misaligned. The weight drastically decreased making me dread that they could snap at the thought of a fall. Be careful buying these in terms of expectations. Sure they will protect your hands from debris and wind but coming from a RETURN CUSTOMER, I am sadly very disappointed that they choose to sacrifice quality to keep production cost low. It's a shame really.

Muy buenos
Mejor de lo que esperaba.
Buena calidad y precio, sólo pido que agreguen un manual de instrucciones.
For the price these are great! (but do need a little TLC to fit perfectly)
I’ve had expensive hand guards (I have owned a lot of bikes) and for the $200 saving, the work I did was minimal.My bars are tapered and the mounting hardware is not, so I used my die grinder (a file would work too) to egg shape the plastic bushings so they fit my bars better. And four of the bolts could be longer, as I had read in another post. If you want to crank them up tight, probably should get 1/4” longer bolts. (Which I might still get if the guards get lose)But these guards fit well after I was done. ( I also had to use a vice to adjust the bend in the guards just slightly) after that everything was 100%I would buy them again.
If you don't need to sport a brand name...they're perfect.
A had these exact handguards on 2 previous bikes....so I knew what I was getting. 3rd set, just as happy as the first 2 times. Thick aluminum, but soft enough to be able to tweak a bit to they line up nice. The other 2 bikes got dropped and flopped and the guards held up just you'd want them to and protected the levers. These are identical so they'll hold up the same.Great buy, 1/3 the price of a nearly identical name brand. If you smash them hard enough to actually break one...well, they didn't owe you anything anyway. The plastic is large and really cuts the cold wind on chilly days....and it's soft enough that it doesn't break when it hits the ground...every time they hit the ground they just got scratched. Can't beat that.
For the price, not so bad
Added these to a 700 Kodiak and they fit ok. Obviously they are universal fit, so they will never fir every make and model perfectly. I had some wiggling and adjusting to do to get them on, but once they are there, they're solid. Definitely will save your hands from bugs and rocks or tree branches, which is what they're for. Only real negative comment is the lack of any sort of instruction, so you're on your own.
