AltRider Upper & Lower Crash Bars

The Lower Crash Bars are the foundation of AltRider's 3-part Crash Bar system. These bars are constructed in the United States from 1.25 inch (31.75 mm) diameter steel tubing with 0.079 inch (2.0 mm) wall thickness. Boasting more than twice the stiffness compared to 1 inch (25.4 mm) tubing no other crash bar design on the market offers such robust protection for your bike. This added strength enabled AltRider engineers to design the Lower Crash Bars to take the first hit in a tip-over or low-side crash before any of the bike's vital components come in contact with the ground. The hand-TIG welded crash bars are CNC mandrel formed around the rear brake lever for excellent ergonomics while still providing powerful protection.

The rear of the Lower Crash Bars mount in-board of the right foot peg by way of the 3/16 inch (4.8 mm) mounting flanges which will transfer impact energy away from the motor to the lower frame. Up front 3/16 inch (4.8 mm) thick stainless steel brackets fastens the bars directly to the frame.

The Upper Crash Bars provide complete coverage for the bike's vulnerable radiator and expensive plastic fairings. The 1 inch (25.4 mm) diameter stainless steel tubing is hand-TIG welded in the USA and mounts directly to frame rather than the engine case.

The Lower and Upper Crash Bars meet at 3/16 inch (4.8 mm) thick stainless steel mounting brackets which tie to the front sub-frame and headstock using included M6 bolts a dramatic advantage over all other designs on the market. This ensures a solid connection to the motorcycle's frame especially when installed in conjunction with the Reinforcement Crash Bars. Once the upper system is tied to the stout lower 1.25 inch (31.75 mm) bars the system becomes clearly the strongest solution option. PEM captive nuts make for easy removal for servicing.

Features:

• Made from hand-TIG welded stainless steel tubing
• 3 piece system allows for customization and offers maximum protection
• Available in black red or silver
• Lower bars may not be compatible with some aftermarket headers due to their relocation of the oxygen sensor
