On rocky and technical trails, exposed areas in the lower and side sections of the vehicle are particularly vulnerable. Frequent contact with rocks and impacts against the ground can cause damage more quickly in these areas. Anyone who regularly rides their VARG under such conditions should check the existing protection and adequately safeguard particularly vulnerable components.

In addition to extra protection, other brake levers, a larger brake pedal surface, or a throttle guard may also be of interest. Such modifications can better adapt the controls to your own riding style while protecting vulnerable areas during off-road use.

On the motocross track, suspension, weight, and direct control are more important. Enduro, on the other hand, involves rocks, roots, impacts, and longer technical sections. That is why additional protection and more grip may be more important for enduro, while on the motocross track, the focus may be on equipment that is as lightweight and direct as possible.

That depends heavily on how it is used. For occasional rides on easy trails, the standard protection may be sufficient. If you regularly ride the VARG on rocky trails, in hard enduro, or on challenging terrain, additional protection solutions for particularly exposed components are certainly worthwhile.

With an aggressive riding style, functional upgrades are usually more worthwhile than purely cosmetic changes. More grip on the footpegs, controls that are easier to reach, and additional protection can directly affect control and durability. Which modification makes the biggest difference depends on where and how you primarily ride the VARG.
