Frequently asked questions

Is it only for Suzuki?
Yes. Barkbusters states only one application for this reference, listed in the table with the corresponding years.

Are the protection plastics included?
No. Barkbusters sells the frame and plastics separately: this includes only the aluminum frame with hardware. JET, VPS, STORM, and CARBON plastics are ordered separately and are interchangeable.

Do I need to reuse the original end weights?
No, the kit includes its own handlebar end weights and replaces the standard ones.
