Re: 2006 Suzuki GZ250

Take a look at the engine guard on my V-Star below. I low sided on a GZ at approximately 18 mph. It pinned my leg to the ground. Luckily it was on the opposite side of the exhaust or it would have burned me to the bone. I needed others to lift the bike for me to get out from under it. Do you get what I'm saying? If I drop the V-Star or low side it (at low speed) I will be able to get out from under it and it will be much easier to lift off the ground alone. That is what everyone is getting at. The Suzuki engine guards are just for looks. They protect nothing and, more importantly, won't keep the bike off of you.
