00:00Alright, so if you've ever dropped your bike in a parking lot and watched your clutch lever snap
00:04clean off, you know that sinking feeling. A $5 piece of aluminum just ruined your whole ride
00:09home. So I went digging and pulled together the top 5 handguards and lever guards riders are
00:15actually buying right now, and honestly, the prices on these had me doing a double take.
00:20Let's get into it. First up, this one's for the Komodo 450 SR crowd.
00:26It's a direct fit brake and clutch lever guard, and the whole point is that it wraps around the
00:30end of your lever so if the bike goes down, the guard takes the hit instead of the lever.
00:35Nearly 4,800 of these have sold with a 4.6 rating, which tells you people are trusting it.
00:41And the kicker? $8.04. That's less than lunch. If you ride a 450 SR, this is one of those
00:50no-brainer
00:51purchases you make and then forget about until the day it saves you a hundred bucks.
00:55Next, the Suzuki Fitment version, and this one's the crowd favorite.
01:00It covers a huge range, GSX-R 125, 150, 250, 600, 750, 1000, plus the GSR models.
01:10What jumps out here is the 4.9 rating. That's genuinely rare, and with over 4,600 sold,
01:17that's not a fluke, that's a lot of riders saying it fit right and looked right.
01:21It's $12.70. Slightly more than the others, but you're paying for that bolt-on precision fit and
01:28finish that doesn't look like an afterthought on a sport bike. Now if you're on a dirt bike,
01:33ATV, or anything with standard 7-8-sinch bars, these Universal Motocross handguards are the ones
01:38to look at. These aren't just lever protectors, they're full wraparound handguards, so they're
01:44blocking roost, branches, wind, and cold air off your knuckles. You get 7 color options to match
01:50your bike, which is a nice touch. $8.65, 4.7 stars, and over 4,600 sold. For trail riding
01:59or
01:59commuting through winter, that wind protection alone is worth the money. Number 4 is the CNC
02:05machined aluminum alloy version, and this is the one for people who care how their bike looks
02:09parked as much as how it rides. CNC aluminum means it's cut from solid billet rather than cast,
02:15so it's stronger and the finish is cleaner, sharper edges, better anodizing, no cheap plastic look.
02:21It's rated 4.8 stars, which is right up there, and it comes in at $11.80.
02:27If you're building out a bike and you want your protection to actually look like an upgrade,
02:32this is the one I'd grab. And rounding it out, this Universal 7-8-inch handguard that fits
02:37basically everything, scooters, ATVs, mountain bikes, standard motorcycles. This is the pick if
02:44you've got more than one machine in the garage or you're not sure your bike has a dedicated option.
02:4911-15, 4.7 stars, over 4,300 sold. It protects both the brake and clutch levers and shields your
02:57hands from wind and debris. Honestly, for the flexibility alone, this is a solid one to keep on
03:03hand. Alright, that's the 5. Every single link is down in the description, so go check current
