Crash course from SW Motech

Low speed and static tumbles are not only embarrassing, they can be very costly; damaged engine casings and bodywork can disrupt or even halt journeys completely, and can be expensive to repair or replace. More commonplace during winter months, when wet leaves, frost and ice can cause riders to lose footing and tyres to lose traction, it is advisable for any rider to take precautions by fitting crash bars.
Constructed from heavy-duty steel, SW-Motech Crash Bars form a protective barrier around the areas liable to damage caused by low speed falls, and can help protect casings and fairings during impacts with other vehicles and in slides and falls at higher speeds.

Although tough, they’re lightweight and unobtrusive, and each set is tailor made to fit the relevant machine; so they add minimal width. In addition, Crash Bar and components are sandblasted and powder coated to help prevent corrosion and blend with the machine’s styling. As well as providing protection, Crash bars are also useful for mounting accessories such as auxiliary fog lamps; ideal for extra safety during the winter riding season.
SW-Motech kits normally require no modifications or cutting of bodywork to fit, and come complete with all the required mounting materials and instructions. New models covered for this winter include the Ducati 1200 Multistrada (£148.06 including VAT), Honda CBF1000 (£128.31), Kawasaki Z1000 (£138.19), Triumph Street Triple (£138.19) and Yamaha Super Tenere 1200 (£157.93).
