You did a gread job well done 👍 Useful content for those who wants to fit their own crash bars. 🏍
Very nice video. Finally someone showing the installation and a round view of how they look on the bike. Personally, I don't mind the looks of crash bars in general. But I do dread these particular ones since Ducatti decided to make the left and right side so different :(
Many thanks, I think the bars suit the bike but I’m not sure how much protection they add, probably not a lot. I may find out with the winter rides this year.
Well crap, I never even noticed that left and right side are different. Thanks for pointing it out. Also I hate that they don't provide all the plugs for the hollow bars where the bolts go.
Thanks for the video! make my installation a lot easier.
Your welcome, I’m glad it was some help 👍
Thanks for sharing, hope you never need the crash bars!!
So far I’ve not needed them 👍
Thanks, your video was very helpful !
Your welcome
Nice job
Great job son 😀
I just installed mine last week and was thinking on doing a video I totally forgot bc there wasn't any on how install this crash bar, it us pretty easy, the only complicated part was replacing the nuts where you hold the long screws to the engine when I removed the left side I forgot the screw out forwarding and I damaged the original aluminum and took hours to get it out. good thing that afterwards you don't need then anymore
Hi,
What is your recomendation to get the blody srew out the motor block?
@@MrSchmidtr Remember the ones in the motor block are backwards twist, I had a one stuck and just drilled it out, don't worry you don't need it back and the drill bit will destroy it easily bc are aluminum
With torque specs, we'll done.
I have been thinking about the aftermarket bars because they are larger and black. Just waiting to see if anyone has issues with them
Great video - Well explained. As to the crash bars themselves, it would seem that they are more cosmetic than practical. The attachment points with those super long extensions to the engine itself (obviosly since there is no frame itself to attach to ) makes me think a tumble with them may cause more damage than protection to the engine itself. They look great tho, and complete the look of a proper ADV bike. Beast of a bike!
Thanks Henry, yes I totally agree, I’m guessing a slow off-road drop will probably add some protection but at speed i don’t think they will do much good.
Tidy 👌
thx
I’m looking for it. But the color red
I'm conflicted: obviously, the protection is valuable but I'm just not keen on how it looks. I'll probably end up getting them even though I don't see myself taking that bike offroad.
I do fancy doing some trail riding nothing to crazy,so only time will tell if I drop the bike how much damage will be done. I’ve got a feeling it’s going to cost even with these bars on.
Boa tarde bom vídeo bem explicado como é que consegiu retirar o parafuso de 6mm par colocar o outro junto ao coletores obrigado
As I remember that screw was really tight so get a extension bar with a 6mm Allen socket and put some pressure on it. It will come loose so don’t be afraid to give it some force
Great content...why Ducati doesn't include them for that price...I own an ugly GSA and gave up on looks along time ago...you can never have enough armor.
Cheers Steve. Everything’s a extra with Ducati 😂
Thx, your video was very helpfull, just remember guys longer screw going on the right side🙂
I’m glad it’s been a help for you 👍
thats exactly what I was reading the comments for. If that info is in the video, I missed it. Thanks
I've got the very same crash bars fit. Unfortunately I put them to the test on an extremely slimy mini roundabout. They didn't stop my fairing, wing mirror and the top tank cover coming into contact with the road! Allow speed drop and now a bill for £1300. May have been better with an aftermarket 'Higher Up' design really.
That’s bad news Mick.. I feel your pain. I nearly came off at the weekend on the greasy roads, but I know what you mean they only offer limited protection and it’s never a cheap fix with these Ducati’s.
Just my point, they offer no real protection and look pants, that’s what I have insurance for
Might have been a £3k bill without the bars....
@@battsonbikes1919 If you have insurance then that’s what it’s for, plus if you have panniers they take the hit
@@battsonbikes1919 True. I just wish they'd have thought about them a little bit more in regards protection...
A shop told me this was a 2 hour install. How old long did it take you?
I guess it took me about 2 hours but I wasn’t rushing. It’s a easy one to do yourself 👍
Where can I get one for my v4s?
I’m not sure to be honest. I guess if I wanted to change the colour I would just get them sprayed red. If I couldn’t buy them in that colour.
I installed the Givi bars on my 22 Pikes Peak. I’ve noticed a lot of vibration now, especially between 4500-5200 rpms. Any vibration from yours?
No I’ve not had any issues buddy
@@thatbikersimon that’s good. Not sure what to do about mine. Pretty expensive to just take them off and store them.
@@sgtfixer is it definitely the bars? Have you taken them off for a re test
@@thatbikersimon actually did this today. The bike feels perfect again without them installed.
@@sgtfixer if it was me a would get them sold, their not worth having if they do that.
Very beautiful bike, is copy my bike 😅😅😅
Thank you. 👍
Looks mank, like having stabilisers on a kids bike, just incase you drop it!
Spoils the look 100%.
Ducati spent lots of time developing weight saving parts to make bike lighter, then you go stick on 10KG.
Very true Ducati design these bars incase you drop it and I’m 10kg lighter than most people 😂
