Chain guard for a '03 650GS

[BLUEJAY]

Hi gents,
I was gonna go for the TT alluminum one.

Any feedback...or any other suitable options out there?

Thanks

Hi Bluejay

I haven't any experience of the TT chainguard, but it doesn't look as though it'll do much guarding, or keep any crap off the chain

When my original broke I cut down the replacement, looks better than the TT and still does a good job!

Yes, I can recommend the guard.

TT also do a lower guard/guide to stop the chain getting knocked off the sprocket - worth it if your're doing off road work.

I've got the TT one. It's OK. Not much you can say about it really.

well an ally one is for styling really.
i have touratech one,its not quite long enough ,to stop crap flicking off the chain .
i have had the romatech one,that was ok , and told people about their site
better value than ttech.
i think micky has the cheapest idea.
all in the eye of the beholder.
another bling item.

If you are using the bike off road it would be worth considering the TT sprocket cover.
The plastic BM one gets glogged up too easily, not helping chain life, and has to be taken off each time you clean (and who does that?).
TT one is noisier though.

A noisy sprocket cover ? hows that work then ?
