Barkbusters for tapered bars??

Not sure if this the right place for this post but here goes.

New bike (2019 KLX250) has set of tapered aftermarket bars - Tusk Chub. How can I be sure the barkbusters will fit the fatter sections? There must be sets specific to tapered bars. Would they be specific to each brand of tapered bar? or a universal tapered bar fit? Thanks any help appreciated.

Also needing lowering links for this thing if anyone has suggestions.

Thanks
 
You will want to buy a universal hand guard kit for 1 1/8 bars.

Mostly universal fit. Some adv bikes you can buy model specific mount kits to keep the OEM bar ends on.

Acerbis come with inserts for the mounts for 1 1/8" and 7/8" bars.

Yes like stated just a kit for 1-1/8" bars. There's just two size bars afaik. I had the UFO Pro handguards on my YZ and for a lower cost option they were excellent and strong. Cycra Probends on my KTM are excellent but they're costly and overkill for light use.
As for lowering, try to ride it at standard height. Clearance offroad is a good thing.
