This was the first time I've seen a set of skidders (or whatever you wanna call something on the side of the bike that might offer some protection should it fall over) on a GTS. I am interested in finding something like this, but they look like they are fastened to the bike by the screw used to hold the lower side fairing in place.
My concern is that those screws are only fastened to the frame by a metal tab welded to the frame behind the plastic. If the bike were to go down I'm sure those tabs would simply bend, breaking the fairings with them. Anyone seen a REAL protective device for the GTS (other than a sidecar)?
