Default Hand Guards

What would be a good pair of hand guards to put on my 05 GasGas EC250 for riding enduros?

with the BONZ mounts...Gets the clamps off the bars for a really clean setup and you can buy the Cycra's without the bar mounts for less money. The new Enduro Engineering Evolution guards you can also get without the bar mounts if you like those.

FYI, I really like the Bonz mounts but I have read cases of them bending in a crash. In an attrmpt to avoid this, I mounted my guards with BRASS M8 bolts. I had a very hard crash, worse than average, and the bolt bent slightly with no damage to the guard or mount. I keep a couple extra botls in my fanny pack if needed on the trail.

Cool idea. I'm gonna try that as well.

They are on my Protect with 40mm hole centers same as OEM GG bar mounts, so they should fit fine.
