There is an optional crash guard available for the FZ. Get it asap! I wish there were crash bobbins available for the R15, I would have got it the day I got the bike&saved Rs.1200 (billet clutch lever accessory-Rs.1100+Rs.65-footpeg) when my bike slipped&fell in my own building parking!

What's a crash guard? Is it the same as the leg guards? Can someone post the pic?
