Brian,
Where did you get your Acerbis Handguards? Do you have a part number? I did a web search, looks like there are a lot of different handguards. I need a set to complete my urban assault Baghira

http://www.acerbis.com "Rally2" is what they are called. (you'll notice from my picts you will see exposed alluminum bar... thats the dead giveaway)
You will have to cut your levers.... don't forget to use the spacers in the kit !

order direct fron acerbis...... I have their locking gas cap and SM universal front fender..... and prolly get the Cyclops off them as well.

Thanks, but they are all out of Rally 2's in the black and white, also out of the mounting kit. I gotta have B&W, guess I will have to pick some other model. My main concern is crashing and breaking a lever, I'm going to ride this bike to Mexico soon, if I broke a lever down there, I might have a "muy dificil" time finding a replacement. The Rally 2's protect the levers well?

yes, they will protect levers well. I have the MSR, they have larger wind deflectors. another good trick for saving levers, wrap the handlebar with teflon tape under the perch, so when it hits the ground, it will spin out of the way instead of breaking!

what part of mexico?

If going with Acerbis, only go with the Rally two's they are I think the best they're other guards don't compare... Phlat's are the same as he mentioned but larger deflectors.... b/o's only take a coule weeks....

I guess I will hold out for the rally 2's, if I can.

This will be my third trip to Mexico, the first two were on my MZ Skorpion. Seeing as I am going in the summer this time, I'm going to try and stay in the mountains where it is cooler, visit some of the Colonial cities. Saltillo, Zacatecas, Guanaquato, San Miguel, Mexico City, Oaxaca, San Cristobal, then on to Guatemala.

As soon as I figure out how to post some pictures, I will post one of my bike. I got it outfitted with luggage and a real comfortable saddle. Has anyone found a tank bag that works well on the Baghira?

Almost forgot....when you install these little beauty's make sure the levers are centered inside the guards and double check when you turn the bars all the way to the right that the guards don't smack the speedo reset trip knob..... when installed correctly the guards will bump slightly the headlight housing......
