Does anyone have handguards on their bike? I like the Powermadd ones, but their installation looks pretty involved -- a little more than I was expecting to have to do. Thoughts?

you mean doing some small cutting on the right side? a little dremel tool will fix that easy. Moose also makes them but they dont look as good as powermadds IMO

I have Powermad handguards on mine. The only took about 20min to put on and line up. There is a tab on the bottom of the throttle clamp (I beleive that was the side) I had to cut off in order to get the clamp to fit. One side hits my snorkel in a tight turn, but other than that, they do a good job of keeping things off my hands.

Folks with the Powermadds, where did you get them and do you happen to have a part number? Do I understand correctly that I need the guards as well as a separate mounting kit? Thanks.

I bought mine from HondaPartsworld.com They were right at $50 with the mount kit I believe??

Pic of my powermadds.

 

[stang67]

They look awesome -- can't wait for Valentine's!

I really like the look of the powermadds, just agressive i guess

 

[big_daddy_bigfoot]

I think I want a set of guards but have not seen anything I like yet, anyone got anymore pics?

 

[TechForeman]

will the powermadds fit a foreman 450?

 

[boss500]

The powermadd mounting kit will fit any atv. Its just a clamping system. You might have to make room between the throttle and the brake, same for the other side.

 

[stang67]

Powermadd owners...
Did you remove the tab on the throttle with a Dremel tool or what? I wanted to remove the whole throttle assembly from the handlebar and use a hack saw, but the bolts holding it on the bar were so tight that they got rounded off. I don't have access to a Dremel at the moment. Any suggestions? Thanks for your input.

 

[boss500]

I used a small hacksaw and cut the tab off from the front of the bike. No problem. Took a quite a few small strokes because of the room but most of the tab is hollow so it dosen't take too long.

 

[stang67]

Oh. You were able to get it off with a saw without unbolting the whole thing from the bars? I gotcha.

I tried the small strokes for awhile but quit, not knowing the tab is hollow. That's what I get for being a quitter. Thanks.
