    Crashbars have arrived!

    Ride home from work. Swoop into garage. Bike on centrestand. Trot whistling to front door. Notice big cardboard box in shed. Look at label. Touratech. Fevered scrabbling. Could it be...... it is!.... my crashbars!!

    On order since November, although to be fair to the folk at Neath they were upfront from the outset that there were production delays in Germany and they couldn't give me a firm delivery date.

    But no matter now. They're here.

    Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to place them where I can sit and give them a damn good looking at, and then pop outside for a spot more capering.

    Be interested in how the fitting goes, ease of fit, clarity of instructions & how happy you are whn they're on.

    Should be easy to fit, if you can get the big engine mount nut off! Soak them in WD40 whilst you consider, then use a big bar!!
    Then its a fine time to go and play in the (now dry) mud!!

    Here is what mine look like .........
    2011 Triumph Tiger 800 - "Black Pussy" - MMMM Nice !!!
    2000 Suzuki DRZ400S - "Ol' Yella" - very bright
    2011 Peugeot V-Clic 50cc - "Scoot" - It's my wife's, an enjoyable ride.

    I have a house , but I can't guarantee it's safe !!
