BBZ-01 built for BLIZZARD conditions – Barkbusters Handguards

Revolutionary new weather-proof motorcycle handguard that’s
Built for BLIZZARD Conditions.

Barkbusters, the world’s leading motorcycle handguard specialist, launches a new weather protection handguard that is compatible with most makes and models, including fully-faired sportsbikes, tourers and Scooters.

The onset of winter doesn’t necessarily mean the end of two-wheeled transport. With advances in clothing technology and the availability of heated grips, riders can easily remain comfortable during the colder months. However, one factor that still causes discomfort is exposure to wind chill. The top of the hands and the fingertips soon feel the effect of the cold air when travelling along, even at moderate speeds.

Fitting a substantial set of handguards can be an effective remedy to this problem. There are, however, a great number of motorcycles that are not able to accommodate traditional designs. With the innovative new BBZ (part code BBZ-01) handguard from Barkbusters, this is no longer an issue.

Manufactured with a windproof and waterproof material that is strong enough to be self-supporting under wind pressure, yet soft enough to flex against fairings and screens without leaving a mark, the BBZ handguard envelops the hands while remaining open at the rear and can be fitted to most motorcycle makes and models. The nature of the construction also means that clutch and brake levers remain free from any interference.

Installation is simple with a choice of fitting to:

1. Handlebar weight
2. Hollow handlebar
3. Over existing aluminium handguard backbone/frame

All necessary parts are included and no drilling or customisation is required.

Matthew Phillpott, Barkbusters CEO says, “The problem with plastic handguards is that they can drastically reduce handlebar lock on quite a number of modern bikes, due to the bodywork and screen proximity.

With the technical fabric incorporated into our new design, we can now offer riders of all motorcycle types a weather-proof handguard that looks smart, is simple to fit and offers the advantage of surrounding the hands – something that a plastic handguard doesn’t provide. The BBZ truly is Built for BLIZZARD Conditions!”

Recommended Retail price: $119.95

Great idea and I wish they existed 20 years ago riding in the uk winter. !!!

Not sure I’ll need them on the North Coast but I’ve just bought a cool set of Barkbuster Jets

These are a good looking thing eh. Better than grip warmers that only heat up your palm while the back of your hand freezes. These things would keep the wind off and let me still ride in the super light weight motocross gloves I like. I might try a set in the mornings of the high country ride. Up until about 10 o’clock they would be good and then throw them in the camelback until the next morning Oh and yeah rainy cold pre-rides would mean toasty dry hands :cheer:
