    F800GS Crash bars to help protect my bike

    RSinTO

    Overall happy with the purchase. Bars fit well and are well made/durable/strong. They clear the body work with an inch or two to spare. The bars also look great, matching the colors and contours of the bike.

    Installations instructions are okay to follow but required a bit of reading and comparing pictures. It took me a little while to realize that the larger image was the left side of the bike while the smaller image inside the bigger was the right side.

    Really disappointed that spacers and bolts were not labeled or identified. With the 20+ small pieces I had to measure and compare each piece before even starting the install. I spent 30-40mins just placing the spacers and bolts onto a marked paper to make install easy. After this install took 30 more minutes.

    Nice guard. It would be nice to have a mount location for highway pegs .

    Great value for product and looks good

    2wheeltraveller

    I bought and installed the crash bars on my wife’s BMW F700GS in October 2016. The product was easy to install once you decipher the instructions and separate which hardware you need and which you don’t. Take 5 minutes to match the hardware required to the pictures within the instructions and it will save you time and frustration. Didn’t rate it a five for the simple fact that the bars have not been tested during a “tipover/crash”. (Hopefully won’t have to!)

    Good Product, Tricky Install

    Pnwadv

    Came in the mail well packaged and protected for shipping. The powder coating looked great. For the installation the bars come with the hardware needed to mount the bars on a few different models. Because of this you need to grab a millimeter ruler and measure every bolt, nut, and spacer and then label them. You only need to use about half of the hardware. After you everything labeled and separated installation took about 15 minutes. I’m very happy with the end product. Lots of frame mounts make the bars very sturdy whike offering protection but not sticking out too far from the bike. My only complaint besides hardware not already being labeled is that all of the bolts washers and nuts are stainless. For the price I would have liked to see them in black to match the bars. Otherwise great product.

    Looks great, feels strong and protective

    I installed this a couple weeks ago. The product looks pretty slick and does not stick out as much as you would imagine from the pictures. I have yet to test the crash bars and hope I never do.
    The installation instructions as for most German products are very difficult to read and understand. They are precise though. The left side engine bolt sticks out far enough that depending on your height it might touch your lower leg (it does for me at 5′ 9″) and it gets very hot.

    I like the bars but the installation hardware and instructions are terrible.

    A bit of an install project, mostly due to me

    JimBobRob

    Be mindful of using the correctly sized spacers during install. I also added some purchased spacers on the main engine bolt (top) to avoid body contact when install was finished. All bolts lined up well, and overall the install went well. Very happy with the final product – does not stick out too much, but also does not contact the body panels.

    Nice fit, well integrated, overall pleased

    btd

    Liked the powdercoated black finish which matches the factory frame paint well. Bars integrate well with lines and shape of the bike, while offering good protection. Installed fairly easily and fit was pretty good. The left side crossbar attachment point was a little off, and required some light force to get it to align so the bolt could be threaded through. All other fasteners matched up nicely.

    The biggest con with this purchase was that, especially for the price point, low grade metric 8.8 hardware is provided. This is equivalent to low US grade 5 hardware that you get at a typical hardware store. Especially given the importance of strength for these crash bars, I would’ve expected higher grade 10.9 metric hardware. Additionally, it was disappointing to remove the nice looking factory 10.9 Torx hardware, especially the large bolts that are quite visible on this “naked” bike, and replace them with this lower grade 8.8 standard hex head hardware.

    Otherwise though a nice product that looks good on the bike (except for the visible hardware).

    Great product

    Zauzogbo

    Fits perfectly.
    Blends with bike as tubes are same size and color as frame.
    Gives a more balanced look to front of bike.
    Instructions somewhat messy.
    Welding not up to par with BMW’s frame.
