Barkbusters BBZ Fabric Handguards

Functional & looks great.

I bought these for my Ural Gear Up (cool sidecar combo) as I ride in winter. The OEM MX ventilated handguards provided zero wind protection and before long I was getting numb fingers in winter. These handguards fit over the OEM ones and use the same bar-end mounts. My test ride was without gloves just to see whether they were any good. They are really good and a worthwhile purchase.
I ordered them into Norwich store to look at before I bought them - a great idea for good customer service.

Easy to fit to my Moto Guzzi V7 III, with good adjustability. Since fitting, I can ride in very low temperatures with normal winter gloves and only need my clip-on heated grips when the feel like temperature goes sub-zero. Solidly made too, they look like they will last a good few years. They don’t look excessively geeky on the bike either, which is a bonus!

Couldn't fit fixed guards on my BMW F800GT because they caught on fairing on full lock & even with the heated grips I was struggling through winter.
These guards changed everything. With the softer material they just bend without doing any damage to fairing. They cover my hands completely, now I have to turn the heated grips down because my hands get too hot
Also, they look good on the bike, easy to fit & with no compromise of the quality I have had from Barkbuster in the past

Fabric hand guards are semi rigid and stay open, allowing full access to throttle, levers and switches. Easily fit in 20 minutes, kept hands warm and survived two minor ‘drops’ without damage on first run out on a frosty morning.

I bought heated grips and heated gloves and my hands were still cold. I bought these Barkbusters and oh my days, my hands are now Toasty ( with a capital T) ! They are super easy to fit as well !

I have a naked Moto Guzzi classic and although some may argue they look out of place, they are a game changer for winter riding. Before, I had to have my heated gloves on max and even then they only just kept the cold out. Now with these barkbusters I can turn my gloves down to half and be toasty. Only take 10 mins to put on and take off

Fitted over Barkbusters Jet handguards on a Tiger 800 they keep all the wet off my gloves in the worst weather.
They are easy to fit and remove, and don't interfere with the controls.

These are fantastic I use them on my tiger, along with the back bone and they really keep the wind and weather off your hands allowing you you to get the most out of you heated grip alls and allowing you to use summer gloves year round. The stitching and materials are of high quality. All in all very impressed

A fantastic addition to.my R1250RS. Wish I had fitted some years ago. They take all the wind off the hands and allow the heated grips to work to their full potential. Also help with the odd stones you get thrown up from other vehicles on the road. Hand protection done well. Easily fitted in 10 minutes.

Very good on cold days keeps your hand warm from the wind .

After 3 weeks of use and on a very cold trip this morning, these are certainly doing the job. Cuts wind chill right down without restricting use of the hand controls.

They will do a job but I'm not really impressed with the fit of these. It seems fairly difficult to mould or adjust them into a shape that keeps the lining away from your hands, certainly underneath the grips. In addition at speed, they deform due to wind pressure. If you can't fit rigid guards onto your bike, buy them and not these floppy canvas jobs

Unlike others that I've owned, these don't restrict access to your controls but still protect your hands from the elements! Excellent build quality and the fact the are mechanically fixed to your handlebars makes them secure.
