Too an extent yes, but you are still going to break indicators fairing mirrors foot pegs, scratch / damage tank.
But they protect the expensive bit - the engine. I got them after I "slowW dropped the bike whilst trying to walk manover into its old difficult to get to storage area which gave a deep gouge in the crank case.
Since then I have dropped it at least a couple of times and they have saved the bike I think, One was well documented on here as there is a vid from a Fazer group ride out. I dithered on deciding weather to go through an open barrier which was about to close after a few others had gone through and it came down on me.
You can see the scratches on the bars but some of that is from them grounding out on particular - roundabouts really with an aggressive camber
