    Works Connection braces with Bullet Proof Designs guards

    Does anyone know if you can use the works connection radiator braces with the bullet proof design radiator guards without modifying them? On a crf450x 2012

    I know you can use them with Devol guards , so as long as the BPD guards dont wrap around the back of the radiator so the WC braces can slide down the side of the radiator , i would not see a issue

    You don't need the WC with the BPD. BPD's design keeps the radiators from bending back unless you really slam it down. I can tell you from experience that the WC bend very easy, and if you slam the BPD's hard enough to bend them, the WC is getting bent too.

    I agree withg riddler9,
    The WC braces bend from side impacts very easily. They are good for preventing the radiators from bending front or backwards however; so although they are better than no guards, I would opt for a different brand like you have. Also may want to look into MSR radiator cages... I love them!

    The MSR rad braces are the same as the Moose versions we carry. Both are made by the same manufacturer. If you'd like we can add the MSR versions to our catalog.
