Good pics. Thanks. Those bars are far better than Suzuki's ornamental stuff.

I should know better than say things from memory......that I haven't really paid close attention to.

Pictures attached. On closer examination, I do not believe the brake pedal would be a problem at all, with a little adjustment. The shifter probably would need some adjustment too but even then my guess is that moving your foot from UNDER to ABOVE might be difficult as your toe would likely hit the bar when moved to the outside. You could overcome this a bit by bending the shifter bar.

Measure your boot from the front of the heel (instep) to the end of the toe; if that is more than 10 inches, it's a no-go even with adjustment, as far as I can tell.









Even with a new camera, it's really hard to get pictures that do the situation justice.

Good job on the photos Easy. Do you have one that is taken straight on, aimed to show the front tire straight and how the brake pedal and shifter are situated next to the engine guard? If not, don't worry about it. Thanks for your efforts. :2tup:

That's easy enough. Might be a couple of days.

Here is the latest attempt:

Easy!
Thanks for that last photo. I now feel comfortable in buying the MC engine guard.
That guard sure looks solid.

Indeed. I have not "tested" it yet; hope I don't get to.
One caution: When I started to put it on, my first attempt to line up all the holes led me to believe that there is no way this is going to fit........but just a minute of jiggling it around a bit and it popped right into place.
I don't think you will be disappointed.

Hey dan_,
I've done some investigating & I've found out that the engine guards are "SPAAN"
Unfortunately this is a Spanish company. operating out of Madrid. The good news is that I've just received their catalogue, & it's packed with goodies not just for the gz, but for any bike you can imagine. If you really liked any of the products, I'm sure they'd quote you a delivery charge before you bought.
If you want the catalogue (it's brilliant reading matter) go to "Spaan", then click on "Accesorios Spaan para motos custom". google will do a translation of the site for you, then you can fill in your details & get the brochure by mail.
Hope you send for it & enjoy it,
Alan

I've just noticed in the catalogue that they do an American licence plate frame, so it would appear that they do deal in America. Perhaps your local friendly motorcycle dealer may be able to help out after you've got the catalogue!
