Re: Swingarm lower suspension protection
I've made a center stand protector for my Tiger 1050. I used a 2/3 mm ally sheet cut to size and used 4 P clips to attach it. I was surprised by how much crud i stopped. The P clips are like this.

Re: Swingarm lower suspension protection
I’ve just collected the Chinese GS centre stand guard from our local Post Office, and I bought a reconditioned RT centre stand, freshly powder coated and with new springs from a friend who’s sold his RT and bought a Guzzi.
All ready to go except, like everyone else, it’s too cold to even consider playing in the garage until the sun shines again…
