I stopped on some loose gravel, and dropped the tenere when my foot slipped. It went over and landed on the hand guard (fortunately). I was surprised to see that it snapped at the mirror mount. So thats from stationary, would be a lot worse if I was going at speed. So thats why bark busters use aluminium.
