AXP bash plate also protects the water pump.

Rally Raid side luggage racks and tail rack weigh 5.1kg but they have a stabilizing bracket to the exhaust hanger which provides decent support.

AdventureSpec crash bars are 2.5kg I think.

Yes I like their plate as its also plastic so less noise transferred up from engine

 

going to have to decide if want rear racks, be using soft luggage and maybe a pillion so have see if I want racks or not.

 

 

Has anyone used the "HeavyDuties.ro" crash bars. their lower units look nice

how do you find them?

 

I like their low version keeps the bike sort of streamlined

I think their great, light and low and it keeps de bike slim.

When you fall on something uneven you still might break the plastic but the high bars also have room enough to let things through.

Check my website, all about my bikes and also video's.

that's my taught too, stones and rocks will still pierce the plastics

 

we need a set of rad braces similar to enduro bikes that fit behind plastics

 

what is your website?
