Installed it on my SV650 with the idea to reduce the cold wind hitting my fingers on my hands. Tested on motorway and can say that there is a significant improvement. Was doubtful if I will like the look of the handguards but now I absolutely love them. Can also say that they are very durable as I had to lay my bike to "sleed" (not by choice, but accidents happen) - there isn't even a scratch on them.
