R&G's are the first thing I add to any new bike.
I dropped my T doing a cra*py U-turn on gravel while the R&G's were still in their packaging in the garage waiting to be fitted :banghead
I scratched up my Akra, the belly pan and some more plastic, and bent the rear brake lever (not that it did anything anyway)
Fitted the R&G's as soon as I got home. The T toppled over on a dodgy sidestand a month later. I picked the bike up with nothing more than slightly scratched R&G's.
Don't mean to sound flippant, but in a big off the only thing to worry about is that you are ok.......and what happens to the bike will be down to pot luck. The R&G's are for car park spills and pay for themselves the first time the bike falls over.
