Be gentle, first post!
Have a 1250 GS on order and have specified the BMW lower engine protection bars (part of a deal). I see the value of them as protecting the cylinder heads if the the worse happens and the bike falls over when stationary or at very low speeds.
Questions
1. With no luggage or luggage racks on the bike what other areas or parts of the bike are likely to be damaged and need protecting if the worse happens and it goes over?
2. Are the upper front Protection Bars if fitted actually protecting anything as from what I can see the bike doesn't really go 'flat' on the floor.
