TAG Handlebars

One of the areas the Kawasaki saves money is by fitting stock steel bars and on the long haul they are far from impressive. With the standard bars it is a bit of an agricultural feel. Fortunately we’ve easily resolved the situation and increased the comfort by fitting a pair of TAG metals X5 bars with cross bar and pads.

TAG Grips

You can’t have TAG bars with TAG custom grips. TAG grips use a synthetic rubber designed to give optimum tackiness and improved vibration dampening and is available in two compounds, soft/medium and medium/hard.

Barkbuster VPS Handguards

One thing we plan not to do on our project bike is to spear off into any solid objects at speed. Unlike enduro riders we don’t spend our time blasting along narrow trails. When it comes to hand guards, adventure riders are more interested in protection from the elements than impacting objects.

The standard KLR hand guards do a very good job of protecting your hands from wind and rain but we did find that these big buggers are hard top stop when they start to topple over and that’s when you realise that something more substantial to protect the levers is important.

The Aussie made Barkbuster VPS Handguards provide a solution with an alloy reinforced plastic guard with an adjustable wind deflector.
