Crash bungs

#1 Post by katie1 » Mon Aug 06, 2018 8:07 pm

I bought some crash bungs which aren't made by R&G!.
Have gone with the Rutan versions. Great looking and considerably cheaper, they had a load of different style and colour options. The garage said they had to trim the inner fairing a bit but nothing you can see from the outside.
Had a few weeks wait as the manufacturer wasn't tooled up for the RST but they look good

Fuck R&G !
I have a set of fork sliders on the Falco from JaybeeBikerbitz, one third of the price of R&G ones and three times the amount of sacrificial materiel

So I'm guessing you won't be buying a KTM lawnmower to match your bike then :smt001

Ooh ! I didn't know KTM now do mowers now !
Must get one, will have to be in white with orange flashes, that will compliment the bike !
Must search for crash bungs for mower....

Seriously though, have found a set 8 crash bungs for the RC8 from the mentioned seller,that is front and rear axles, replacement titanium front axle bolts drilled to take the sliders, bungs and scaffold for the mainframe, hole saw included, a bit less than 140 quids.
That money spent with R&G might get me one of their stickers
