Hi folks,
it might not be everyone's taste but I do like the hand guards on some touring machines. Just did a 3 week tour through France in foul weather, even snow, on a BMW1100GS. I loved the heating grips and the guards! Looked at a XB12XT yesterday which comes standard with these items. Now I want a set for my S3. An recommendations? What aftermarket stuff looks cool? Fits well? Pics? Prices? Colors? Thanks a lot for all of your ideas! Ride safe - and warm!

Find a shop with a catalog from Parts Unlimited or Tucker Rocky and browse till your eyes bleed. No one can tell what your taste in guards will be, and how they will look on your S3 but you, As far as grips there are a few you can chose from at both distributors.

Check out Al at American Sport Bike for heated grip kits (see the sponsor section)

+1 on Al's heated grip kit. It'll keep you good and toasty.

Good idea, I didn't know Al had that kind of stuff,but then I'm only looking at X1 stuff.
