Got a set of Progrip Rally 714(?) and a set of white Venom reinforced handguards to replace the old waffles and non-reinforced plastic guards on it at the moment.
That’s the same setup on the bars of the little GN125 and it’s arrived to Avebury with bushes stuck in the guards and no detriment to my hands. Super comfy grips too.

Yeah, definitely light clothing / hard armor is the combo for off road. I can think of at least two times that MX boots have saved me a broken ankle in the last couple of years, once casing a jump and the second running over my own foot! :)
Get some proper bark busters and a full wrap around sump guard for the DR if you haven't already too. You'll be pretty much tumble proof then!
