Re: Crash protection

To be honest all the R&G and evotech ones I have owned over the years have mounted straight on the frame spar. The ones you describe that are bolted to a plate which is then secured to the frame at the other end are marketed as NOT requiring the fairing ...

Re: Bike Insurance

... it would count as a claim on your house policy if you did have to claim, resulting in a increase the next year? I have claimed twice (albeit a few years ago) and my premium went up by about £3.
