Not easy install

Right side went on just fine. Upper mount went on easy enough. Left side lower mount was not aligned well at all. Had to adjust the mount in the vice which of course cracked off a lot of the paint. Took at least an hour of making adjustments to get it to line up with lower engine guard. Had to tap one of the holes to get the bolt to even start. Needless to say other one stripped out and had to modify with longer bolt and nut. Went to ride first time and found the upper plastic shroud rubbed the upper mount and caused the steering to stick.Had to trim plastic for smooth turning. Just a little frustrated overall.

Great bars for the F800 GSA

I knew I would need these; I did... It took 95% of my falls. That's to say, in my off road excursions, I tipped the bike over/ it took a nap on dirt, gravel, rock and brush. At one point fell on a Gas Pump, must be love. I've got all the confidence that it will continue to perform well. Thanks, for your quick delivery as well!

Happy Happy Happy

Out of all the crash bars I looked at these are the sexiest. They look fantastic on the bike. Plus they give protection in all the right places. Easy install. Can't wait to get the first scratch and be able to tell about it with buys new parts. thank you wunderkind.

These Bars Do Their Job

We installed these a week before the Cycle World Adventure Rally in Gunnison, CO. The bike tipped twice in a rock garden, once with panniers on and once without and the radiator and plastics were okay. The lower mounts pushed 1/2 an inch in, but I readjusted those and it's good as new, albeit with the black paint scratched off. When the panniers were off, if those bars hadn't been there, the plastic surrounding the radiator or the radiator itself would have been damaged.

They did their job!

Put these on before heading to Big Bend National Park. I thought they would come in handy on some of the rougher roads like Black Gap. Managed to stay upright through the rough parts, but a hidden rock in a deep gravely wash put me right down on he ground at 30mph. Some plastic was broken, but I am convinced the bars saved my radiator. Installation was easy, fit and finish was superb. Highly recommended!

Hepco & Becker Upper Protection Bars

The H&B high crash bars compliment the F800GSA perfectly. It's well designed providing great protection for the upper body work following the contour of the bike precisely. The gauge of the tubing matches the OEM lower bars that come standard on the bike and the black matches the frame exactly. I also got the H&B hand guard protectors which fit perfectly over the OEM hard plastic wind-deflectors. The fit & finish of the H&B products is excellent and they are well designed for the bike.
