Help Please - Rivco or Triumph OEM Crash Bars/Engine Guards?
Hi folks - I just posted on classifieds looking for some Rivco engine guards - and HellFire suggested we start a thread so we can all benefit from some opinions...

WTB Rivco crash bars/engine guards...
Hi Folks,
I'm doing a Ride Like A Pro course soon and think I had better get a set of engine guards just in case I do a tipover round the cones! Knowing my luck I might do just that and I don't want to ruin the paint job on my bike - cheers! Anders

I couldn't tell you which is which, but there has been alot of discussion here about different manufactuers and quality. You may want to either look back in the history or start a new thread in accessories asking opinions. Some were having fitment issues with Rivco and some were complaining that Triumphs older parts were not thick enough. I'm interested in getting some bars myself and was thinking it wouldn't be a bad idea to ask around for opinions and experience with the parts. There were serious issues with the Rivco center stand I installed last year and I got alot of help from others here on the site.
