    Recently purchased a set of Tusk D-Flex handguards for my 83 xc250. They wouldn’t clear the long Magura levers so I returned them. The Acerbis x-factory handguards are pretty sharp but not sure if they will fit either. What handguards have others used that fit the longer levers? I really don’t want to install the shorty levers.

    I have the same year and problem. I will probably shorten the levers

    Most hand guards/bark buster require you to remove the ball end of the levers.

    I had Husky shorty levers (meaning they weren't just cut down one) on a 83
    i had a few years back, don't know who's (brand) they were though.

    i run the tusk d-flex handguards...fit fine if you remove the balls. to me its worth the trade-off of never bending up maguras again..

    I ordered a set of the pros for my 82. I'll update when I get them installed.
