I'm resurrecting this thread to get some clarification on the case guard requirement for the '08-'12 Ninja 250.

I did a little looking around, and only found a carbon fiber one for the right side:

I don't think this will do much to keep it from getting worn away in a crash. But I can say I've crash tested my Ninja 250 no less than 4 times in the last 7 years, and neither side of the crankcase has any road rash.

So do we really need these things?
