Nobody wants to crash; but if the worst happens, it's worth being prepared.

There are quite a few companies out there making crash protectors, but how many actually work well?

R&G crash protectors are tried and tested on both road and track to shift the 'odds' further into the riders favour. R&G protectors have no 'gimmick' features, such as rotating heads, which could enable a crashing bike to maintain its speed whilst sliding, or exposed metal parts that could spark or shear in a crash, causing injury or damage, or dig in, causing the bike to flip.

Modern motorcycles are designed to be as lightweight as possible. The only downside to this is the fact that as a result there are very few places on a bike with enough strength to take a direct impact without breaking. Many companies make crash protectors that fit onto completely unsuitable places on a bike, such as 6mm fairing screws, laterally mounted bracketry (which could fold on impact) or unsupported frame locations, which could easily bend or break.

R&G argue that the only suitable place on most modern bikes, which is capable of dissipating these kinds of forces is the point where the frame meets the engine : the keystone of the bike. In some cases this may mean a small fairing modification.

R&G products cannot work miracles, but they will shift the odds a lot further than the alternatives.

R&G crash protectors have been used or endorsed by some of the best riders in the world. Those who choose R&G to protect their motorcycle are in very good company.
