Hey folks! First post here.
Welcome!
Just bought a lovely 2007 Concours 14
Ok, technically, there is no such thing... You actually bought a 2008, which is the first model year of the C14/Concours 14/Concours 1400/1400 GTR/ZG1400 (whew, lots of names), and was available in late 2007. Calling it a "2007" will lead to confusion when you are looking for compatible stuff.
and I'm already ready to start adding a few farkles, of course.
One of the best things about the Concours- just lots of neat stuff to add and drain your wallet.
I saw a few threads on hand guards,
Sorry, I don't have much info on that.
I originally wanted some but then came to find I really didn't need then on the 2nd gen with the higher mirrors and heated grips. Like you said, plenty of generic stuff, but then you have to find a way to MOUNT them effectively/securely. That can be challenging, especially if you don't want to permanently alter/damage/drill into visible plastic parts of the bike.
