Does anyone have any experience of these and Rainbow?:

I want to get some black ones for my new Triple Black edition. Can you comment on whether they are any good etc? They seem reasonably priced in comparison to some so keen to get your views.

Thanks in advance.

If you do a search on here you'll find plenty of praise for Rainbow -that doesn't happen by accident or coincidence.

I have just bought a set of Hepco and Becker engine bars in Black from Moto-Bins for my Triple black (got the bars but no bike until 19th March

Anyway I paid £149 delivered and ordered from their website. They were ordered on the Sunday and delivered Wednesday so no complaints from me.

Got to be worth looking at.

Thanks both. I usually use the search on the forums a lot before posting but didn't this time for some daft reason. Good to know they have a decent reputation here.

Cheers Daffy will definitely check them out. How do they look? are they powder coated or plastic coated and do you get all the fitting bits too or just the bars? Cheers in advance.

Hi Torq,
They look good, I think that they are powder coated but I am not sure, they seem to be a satin type black that from memory will match the engine of the TB (did you see what I did there?) although I cant be sure cos I dont get mine for a couple of weeks yet.

They come with the fitting kit, but the bolts are in a silver colour which is good as this will match the bolts in the engine anyway as the front cover bolts are silver.

I had a set of H+B bars on a 2006 GS and these seemed really good quality and even stood up to being dropped a couple of times without any drama. (Nothing too serious though) So I would have no hesitation in using them again.

Torq,

I had some H&B bars when i owned a ickle GS before moving onto the real deal , they were nice bars, heres a piccy for you

 

[EggChaser]

I went for the H&B black bars as I thought black looked nicer with the gold parts on the '08+ models

Thanks for the feedback and pics all really helpful to actually see them in the flesh. Just looking on the suggested sites now and hope to have them ordered shortly.
