This website: http://cyclehuttktm.com/ lists the following prices:

58035134000 RADIATOR PROTECTOR R/S BLACK; $14.54 x 1 = $14.54
58035034000 RADIATOR PROTECTOR L/S BLACK; $14.65 x 1 = $14.65
50235033300 SNAP-NUT HOLDER M6 KP142; $5.58 x 4 = $22.32
0014060153 HH COLLAR SCREW M 6X15 WS=8; $1.50 x 4 = $6.00

By my calculations, that comes to about $57.51 plus shipping, although in my humble opinion, nothing called a “snap nut holder” should cost $5.58 each. There must be a common hardware solution that costs 1/10 that price. Here’s a detailed diagram so you can fab one of your own. Knock yourself out:

One also wonders what the difference is between the two guards that warrants an eleven cent price difference. 0.1 oz more plastic? Seems you could have rounded them both off to $14.60, no one would have been the wiser, and KTM comes out a half a penny ahead on average. Maybe I’m the only one who’s bothered by that.
