HDB’s Ultimate Handguards and 10% discount
Code named Big Bike Beefy Billet Bars. These guards are made with big bikes and big abuse in mind.
So how can we say these are the Ultimate Handguards, grab your calipers and take a little walk with me. Lets start at the bar ends. Just like our standard sets you get a tap and threaded inserts for the bar end attachment, by far the most secure and strongest method. Now look at the bar end boss on the guards, how many times have you chewed up your grips with those big name guards. You may wish to change your grips from time to time, but this will be the last time you replace your grips on account of dumping your bike. Now lets compare side by side the bar designs, from the bar end to the bend is by far the most venerable area for damage in a crash. The numbers speak for themselves. Well over ¼” more material than Cycra or Acerbis where you need it most on those 400+lb bikes.. And we know it’s stronger, it takes almost 20 tons more to form them. ![]() HDB vs Cycra ![]() HDB vs Acerbis ![]() HDB vs Cycra ![]() Cycra at the bend ![]() Acerbis at the bend ![]() HDB's at the bend ![]() Check out the hand protection on HDB guards, there is no comparison, you not only get a bar beefier than any others, in that area you get well over twice the material and twice coverage. ![]() Even when you get to the inner end mounts, again over 1/8” more material. ![]() On a test bike ![]() Remember you don’t need a big bike to mount these and when combined with our mirrors, top clamps and accessories, this system stands alone. Enter "advrider01" at checkout for a 10% discount on all HDB products. |

Would the "BMW Handguards" work on an Airhead GS?
I have a 95 R100GS and have been looking for some handguards |

A photo of your bike would help a lot. I'll need to know a few specs to get it right, the bolt pattern on the top clamp, because we'll be replacing it, the width and rise of those bars, it looked pretty high and that will determine the length of the guards I'll send out with the set. A '95 R100GS might be a little outside the scope, but we can give it a shot. |

Kudos
A happy customer. No other connection. Top quality goods, flawless product, customer service (a couple issues with fitment (not product, my bike) and a mirror broken in shipping were handled without hassle). In the same league as Woody at Woody's Wheelworks.
HIGHLY recommended.

can't wait
Ordering a set for my Hypermotard. You should post this thread on your website. Or at least the picture comparison of the guards. Way cool.
