CS HAND GUARDS

[Ginger DJ]

Anyone put hand guards on a CS?
Are they the normal 650 GS ones?

hi gingerdj,you are logged onto ukcser
yes standard f650gs one fit,with Touratech deflectors.just the job for the cool weather.although if you have a larger cs screen ,you will need to trip it a bit,otherwise causes problems on full lock or using steering lock.

 

[Ginger DJ]

As i thought so why don't my TT extenders fit?

 

[Colt]

have you fitted the gs guards to the scarver?
have you ttech f650 extenders ?

 

[Ginger DJ]

Yes & Yes

 

[Colt]

what do you mean the extenders dont fit?
have you bolted them to the handguards yet.

 

[Ginger DJ]

This any good?

 

[Colt]

they dont look right ones to me
you get them from ttech?

 

[Colt]

you are welcome to come around and look at the bike and its mods
would like to check out the lights you fitted to the cs

 

[Ginger DJ]

ye from TT
Only thing i thought was that the guards were 1150 ones. I will give Williams a ring and check

 

[Ginger DJ]

On hol all week might try and get down to Preston. I get my bike back on Wed so could have a ride out with wifey

 

[Colt]

ah yes,they look like the 1150 ones.they wrap around a little bit.
see i have them on my 1150

Went to Alan Jeffries today. Williams were as much use as mens tits. The mechanic there said straight away that what TT have sent won't go on any BMW. The hand guards on the CS are def 650's but god knows what the spoilers are for, the nearest match for shape on the website are the Buell ones (300-0050). Back on the blower to the ever helpfull TT tomorrow.
By the way colt, you don't have a pic of yours from the riders perspective do you just so i can see the mountings?

 

[Colt]

hi,pity about williams.you need to speak to Janet she is a good storesperson.
a couple of pics.
hope they help.
you need to see the mountings?

 

[Colt]

by mountings you mean the brackets that hold the handguards on?

 

[Colt]

oops
you have the clamp that bolts around the handlebars?

 

[Ginger DJ]

ye same guards
are they TT spoilers?

 

[Ginger DJ]

SORTED!
phoned TT managed to speak to someone who knew what day it was.
Apparently this is not an isolated incident. some of the Buell spoilers have been packaged wrong at the factory. So they are now in the post back to TT with the correct ones on their way here. Even got my postage refunded!

 

[Colt]

thank goodness
lets hope you get the correct ones this time
or put a post on the buell owners club and do a swap:
