Does Anyone Knows if the rear dresser bars will fit with the corbin beetle bags.

Since the price is so high for the bags, I would like to protect them a little.

thanks:Tip-Hat:
 
It's been awhile since I talked with them but there was a time when Rivco wanted to borrow an R3 w/Beetles to try to design something to solve this need. May be worth a call to them to see if something is in the works: http://www.rivcoproducts.com/products/home.php

If they do I hope they are more substantial than the front ones. I can bend mine with my bare hands and I'm far from being a BMF. Are they all that way or did someone put a cheap set on mine ? If anybody has a set that might actually help in a crash, where did you get them ?

They are meant to Fred. The idea is that they bend and absorb energy before any bolts get ripped out of the engine block. It's a common misconception that they need to be BIG and STIFF. I've had a crash or two in my youth :eek:ops2:
