Frequently asked questions
Do I need to drill or cut anything?
No. The bars bolt to the existing frame mounting points, with no cutting or drilling.
Can I still service the bike with the bars fitted?
Yes. The bars are shaped to leave access for routine maintenance, so they do not need to come off for everyday jobs.
Can I carry extra gear on the bars?
Yes. Clamp Heavy Duties Pipers onto the 21.3 mm tube to anchor straps, fuel or water canisters and tool tubes. The plastic Pipers also act as replaceable impact buffers.
