Hi Thomas, Gorgeous bike you have in that photo. When you say that your engine guards are not as sturdy as the Triumph bars, are you refering to Triumph's Dresser Bars? Because, to my eye, those dresser bars are only for looks. Haven't seen them in person, but they don't appear to provide much engine, or leg, protection. If there are other types of engine guards that Triumph makes, let us know, cuz the accessory selection site only shows the dresser bars. I really like your bars, as I'm just back to riding after a 30 year hiatus, and until I'm fully back in the saddle in the spring, and fully confident in my riding, I want full protection for the bike, and me. Then perhaps I'll remove them, but they provide great insurance. I'd prefer a black powdercoat finish, but I can always paint them satin black, so they look like part of the bike's frame. Where do your engine guards bolt on? Did you have any trouble at all, or was it an easy add-on?
Thanks
