Congrats on the bike, gutted for you on the hand guards. Mine would be staying on, pay dividends come winter for sure, watch you bikes secure at dads as your ins co could take issue if it gets nicked from there, unless its covered from there of course !
Are we talking brick wall either side stopping you getting down the side ?,
is it a long way to get through ?,
could a wheeled thingy sort it whilst having the bars sideways ?.
Picture of where your trying to get through may prove fruitful...
