From the pics it looks like they might hit the screen when turning the bar.
(That's why I haven't ordered them yet)

They fit well but do touch screen on full lock.

Was there a 'model' number for the guards you got?

Cheers

They do touch the screen but only on full lock, you can still easily use the steering lock when parking the bike so not restrictive in my opinion.

I ordered the guards from here: http://www.adventure-spec.com/shop/b.../prod_197.html

I believe only black or silver but I have been speaking with a guy called Matthew Phillpott who is the MD of Rideworx who make barkbusters so you could always drop him an email or alternatively ask the guys at Adventure Spec.

colour variations
 
the barkbusters only come in black for the tenere, but replacement plastics are available. We tried to get these in stock but at the time the UK distributors didnt have any and i dont think they have yet. blue/white, white/black and yellow/black (main shield/extension) was what we were after which seemed appropriate for the tenere. they are an optional extra though and i doubt there will ever be colour options available as standard.

Check out http://www.barkbusters.net/products/126.html really good fit and they are one of the most helpfull companies I have come across. They look good on the Ten - the wind protection is excellent - no cutting/drilling just straight on no problem. Nothing touches anywhere - superb! Steve Rix is their export sales guy and really helpful

Just had my Barkbusters delivered today from Adventure-Spec. Quick delivery and look as good as any Acerbis I've used in the past with the Ally bar. Fitting kit with bar ends and spoilers are a nice touch and make them better value than others in my opinion.
