Do You mean these ??


They are from a german company, Fehling.

They emailed me an invoice which I paid via PayPal ( they send payment instructions with the email, and they arrived about a week later. No hassle apart from good old Royal Mail being unable to read a perfectly addressed parcel ( correct postcode and all ) and delivering them half a mile away to the wrong address. Germans = 1, British = 0

I am also looking for good crash bars. I came off my beloved @ the other day (1st time) I had motad crash bars and they saved the bike completly but they are damaged now, any suggestions ?

These look just the ticket. Any problems with fitting ?.

Had the Fehling bars on my AT...good bit of kit definitely. Tested them on numerous occasions last year!

Don't recall any nightmares fitting, they come with an extra long engine mount bolt that goes right through the middle of the bike, so you just replace the one thats in there already, then the fronts bolt on by the rads at the top (think the supply a bracket for that) and to the Bashplate mounts at the bottom. Just dont overtighten the lower ones or they can break the mounts and you'll need a friendly welder.

Has anyone crash tested these type of bars ?

Looks like the lower mounting point uses the bashplate mount which more likely to fail than the bars as they are just a plain flat tab welded to the down tube. Touratech and a couple of the other do not use these mount points which I think is probably more sensible. I think Motad bars used to cause a fatigue fracture and snap the bracket completely. Somebody will probably be along to correct me later!

Looks like the lower mounting point uses the bashplate mount ...

And is uses a fairing mounting bolt which much be even weaker. I really liked the look of the Fehling bars when I was looking at bars for my @ and what put me off was the mount points. I went with SW-Motech in the end and crash tested them the day after fitting them They saved the fairing 100%
