Hand guards for the 990 A
I was wondering if anyone out there had found a good replacement hand guard for the 990 A. Preferably something with more strength than the stock plastic ones and more wind coverage. Thanks.

Cycra Pro Bend and FastWay are two options. An example:

The Cycras have taken an incredible pounding on my 450. I put the same ones on the 990 and they have not budged for a couple of falls.
The stock plastic ones are nothing more than bug deflectors...they twist or fold during crashes.

I have the Fastway guards and like them very much. However if I was to buy another set I would go with these: http://www.highwaydirtbikes.com/HDB_...ref=handguards
