Great Video, I just installed them on my F750GS using the lazy approach and it worked even with bigger hands. BTW there is no need to get a longer bolt the kit comes with an M8 65mm and an M8 35mm long which work out of the box, the short M8 25mm bolt is used for the F850GS
Geeze! You move that bike around with one leg?! I love it! I am looking into finally getting crash bars put on my bike. I want to practice parking lot skills. I don't feel comfortable on my bike just yet. I moved up from the 310 late last year. it's been a slow start to spring here in Ontario. I've been out a few times but just short regular rides. I want to practice moving my bike around and picking it up.
Good video Pam. I have the Outback motortek ones on my 850. Very pleased with them and the one time I have dropped the bike (so far 😎) they have done their job. Just the bash plate to order next. I also just fitted a small 5litre toolbox behind the left pannier rack.... £20 from Ali express 👍🇬🇧
🙋hi from Scotland thank you for sharing this information but i had bother with the left side spas i was fitting one for the first time you never mentioned that you need to take the bolt out before putting in the spacer it wont go in if bolt not removed took me ages to work out what the problem was take care
Nice one, you're doing an amazing job with your leg in a cast, well done... I found the Touratech crash bars to be rock solid on the F800GSA, after many drops they are still straight and symmetrical, I'm sure you'll find the same toughness (but not by dropping your bike I hope). I just ordered some 6L Mini Bags from Lone Rider to attach to either side of my tank bars, hopefully they arrive sometime in 2021... 😎👍
Thank you! That's great to hear as these bikes seems to be attracted to falling over haha jk. What do you plan to put in those 5L bags? because when the bike drops it will hit it first? So maybe just clothes? I have always wondered about that! haha.
@@TrackOurJourney have now fitted them, they look good and are well made, very robust, also took the sound resonator off and installed the dominator mid pipe, she sounds great now
I hit a deer and the bar didn't survive although it saved my bike. So it did its job. But now I also want to try a different brand since it's same price.
@@TrackOurJourney I must have missed that part about the deer. I hope all is well. Currently I have the SW-Motech bars which are fine, but not sure how well they will perform since it's a one piece setup and I really don't intend to test them. There were some very small changes to the exhaust for the '21 model and some of the bars no longer fit. This was really the main reason I went with them because they don't interfere with the forward O2 sensor. Once Touratech have an official '21 product available I may swap them.
