Where can I buy Crash Bar Protectors?

[Edgar]

I have a set of RUMBUX crash bars on my bike, but I am looking for a product same as in the pictures or similar that I can fit to the crash bars. Is something like this available locally?

Protection for the protection I should have thought of that.

Protection for the protection it is...
Are you sure that the protection for the protection won't need protecting too? 

Just buy some aircon pipe insulation of the correct diameter that clips together .
Cut into lengths to suit and clip in place over the bars.

Alternatively get some HDPE water pipe with ID the size of the protection bars OD.
Cut to length.
Slit the pipe to fit over the bars.
Replace every time you lay it down and scratch the HDPE.

If you see the price of new crash bars you will understand

Use some rubber hose. (Ja ok you cant get it over a closed loop on the bars)
Yeah they  are pricey but as already said, youre looking for protection for your protection,
Besides it you do drop it and they get scratched, powder coating wont be near as much as replacing the bars, if the bars need replacing they will have been bent, no protector will stop the bars from bending though

One good thing about protection for the protection bars is that, in the event of a more serious spill,
it will protect the motor from being damaged...

by the protection bars !

I wonder what is going to be put on the bobbins to protect them

I recently had to powder coat the upper crash bars. R800 for that. So if I can buy a piece of rubber or plastic to prevent that I would be happy   

I like my bike to be spotless all the time, part of my OCD

I think I've seen them on Banggood

YES, thanks, that is what I was looking for.

Is it just me or are the bobbins not a bit counter productive?

I assume there is a reason why there is some daylight between the panels, motor , radiator etc and the crash bars; that in the event of a mishap, the bars can flex and/or bend without impacting the delicate bits?

I use Satin Black in a rattle can... maar dan ry ek ook 'n KLR...

I see the GS guys here have some sort of thick tape they wrap around the sensitive spots.

I saw someone using kreepy krauly pipe tied on with cable ties. It'll take you half way for a steampunk look.

This is like wearing a condom over a condom thinking that you will have extra protection 

It is a adventure bike and it will get some scratches some stage in it's life. Nothing that a touch up with a rattle can won't fix.

Would I be cynical to postulate that more crash bars are bought for display than for actual protection?
