Yeah, the hand guards already did their job. Bike now has axle sliders front and rear.
The friggin rear brake needs some serious detuning. Works too damn well. Don't dare use it unless i wqnt to break the rear loose. Accidentally touched brake pedal ever so slightly while buried in a turn and low sided. Obviously not a big deal (low siding) but shouldn't have happened. My fault... bad foot placement on peg so when leaned over, road bumped foot which put pressure on rear brake pedal and rolling on the ground i went. Hmmfff
