Thank you soooo much. You have saved my sanity as mine came without fitting instructions! Will blow out the job next weekend. 😊
Thanks for your comment. We don’t supply printed manuals. Only videos simply because they can be very detailed
Good to see you are the first brand to create proper crashbars for the CRF300Rally. Keep up the great work and quality products!
Cheers. We appreciate your kind words!
Just got these for my Rally. Thanks for the speedy delivery guys.
It's not mentioned but you have to take off the skid guard first and also the torque for the engine bolts is 55 NM.. That is from the service manual, 45 Nm is for bolts on the back of the engine, 55 for the front. It's a little dangerous to make a mounting guide that beginner mechanics could use, that does not stress the fact that the engine bolts need to be done with a torque wrench.
Thanks for your reply. The service manual refers to the OEM torque specs. We supply our own bolts.
@@Outbackmotortek If Honda specifies 55 nm torque for those bolts, don't you think that it could be important for the long term health of the engine? I'm a little nervous about it either way, either I torque it to 55 nm which is what the engine seems to have been engineered for, but the bolts might fail, or I torque it to 45 nm and it might cause problems with the engine in the long term. Maybe OM should supply bolts that can safely be torqued at 55 nm?
Thanks for this info Saunas! I was just mounting mine and was missing the info on the torques! It's the main bolt that holds the engine in place and wrong mounting could affect the quarantine of the engine.
@@KKimKKolwiek you are welcome
HEAD UP TO EVERYONE. MOTO X V2 full exhaust is not compatible with this crash bar. The braket blocks off where the header goes. Yes i even took the pipe off to make sure and we confirmed they dont work together. Ive spoken to a rep and they are now aware of it. Will be sending pictures to them.
Thanks for the video it was absolutely helpful saving so much time!!!🎉😊
Thanks for the feedback!
Gyerekek ez nagyon bèna lett. Alig lehet kibogozni melyik oldalra mi megy.
Oh man that's awesome! Making hard for me to think about selling my Rally.
Your choice for the highest mounting point is really unbelievable. Way to make permanent damage to front fairing/instruments/light cluster...
Thank you
I wonder if I could jury rig my SrC crashbars in combination with This set, that would be the most ideal protection for this bike.
Did you figure out if that is possible?
@@New_Age_Revolution ive seen other you tubers do it , but it seems they jury rig something in the bottle bracket, I just can’t get a clear look.
Another thing I noticed was the right side bracket is rubbing the radiator hose, don't know if this is a alignment issue or anyone else have this problem, 2023 300 rally, and slight rubbing of the mudguard on the cross brace at the bottom
I just installed mine, Great job. Fit and finish is excellent. I was supplied 2 large washers (same size at the OEM motor mount washers that I used for the install) that I didn’t use. Do those washers go somewhere else?
Thanks for the feedback and and compliments! I have to check why there are two extra washers. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Although extras are always better than being short 🙂
I almost had the same issue today and thanks to this comment I checked thoroughly and fixed it. If you had the same "issue" as I did, then the spacers go between the left plate and the frame. From right to left you have bolt head, OEM washer, right plate, long spacer (kit), frame, OEM spacer, engine, OEM spacer, frame, small spacer (kit) plate, OEM washer, nylock nut.
I almost missed one as well. I don't know if this is critical but you might want to check?

Hi great well detailed video Can you tell me what is the Torque Setting for the Engine Through Bolts. Thanks
Where was that in the video?
Depends on how big your impact is. 😅
@@someguy5035 According to the service manual it is 55 N m, 41 ft lbs
So 55 nm ended up being good for you guys?
@@sayuas4293thanks for the question - so important. I’ll be torquing mine to 55Nm and use a torque paint pen on the nuts to watch that everything stays in place.
Just received mine and mounted them. Look and feel great, however the "Outback Motortek" Sticker is fitted upside down.
Thanks for letting us know. We apologize for the error. You should be able to carefully remove the plaques and stick them back on. Much appreciated
Hi Lorry, we would like to understand how it connects and protects the bracket under the front led .....
all clear the lower part but I don't understand the connection 'pipe' under the headlight, ////// the upper part> connects to the instrument holder of the bike ???? Because there is no upper bracket connection, between left and right of the crash-bar (under the light) ... correct? Thank You Lorry!
There’s a fairly heavy duty bracket which secures the instrument cluster. That’s the upper mounting point of our crash bars.
@@Outbackmotortek but why you didn't make a splice bar / bracket , taking advantage of that point anyway.... with a little bracket renforce, upper zone.
@@lukestringer2177 I'm not sure if I know what you're referring to. The crash bars have been drop tested. I believe that we've done a good job: czcams.com/video/EZkdxrWKWvw/video.html
@@Outbackmotortek it's just my excess of fear about cockpit instrumentation FRAME / I know that you are the TOP ... sorry for my insistence / good Job guys and thanks for your effort ★★★★★
Did you crash test these and does the lower fairing take a hit? Also, with the crash bar attached to the console, what is the risk of damage to that assembly on a hard fall?
czcams.com/video/EZkdxrWKWvw/video.html
It concerns me a little as well having the bars attached to the front fairing stay bracket. It’s attached to the front of the bike by a pretty thin bracket🤔. I understand it’s there to protect those big a&$ fairings and tank, but I’m glad I have just the 300l version 🤦🏻♂️
The bottom plastic part will get scratched and the upper headlight mounting point will bend as well.
Adding more weight to an already gutless bike. Owners need to be thinking about shaving off weight rather than adding it. It's a dual sport bike. No harm having battle scars. Heavy adventure bike can use protection because even a small fall can cause a good deal of damage.
Massiv - massiver - Outback Motortek. Heute Früh morgens montiert, eben "getestet".......
The crash bars that I bought from OM France came without mounting instructions. No paper at all. Is that normal? I maybe have overtightened one of the throught bolts. Can I get a spare one somewhere?
Thanks for your comment. We don’t supply printed installation instructions. It’s video only because it allows us to explain every detail and also provide tips and tricks.
Does this fit on the 250 rally? 2018
Greetings
Amazing design, but this is only for the upper faring protection where is the lower part?
Is it a different project?
Thank you for the clarification.🇺🇸🎉🍾🇺🇸
Not much to protect at the lower end. It’s just plastic, which is pretty flexible. The top end however has the radiator and the turn signals.
Covering the lower is practically impossible, unless one wouldn’t mind having a scaffolding “masterpiece”. Not to mention it’d weigh so much more.
SRC MOTO (even has torque settings with instructions) czcams.com/video/dkPp6qC2mcw/video.html
@@Outbackmotortek yes, the plastic is flexible...it can also crack and vibrate, and crack the mounting points during a fall, etc. etc. A lower bar assembly hits the ground first keeping the radiator off the dirt anyway. Just like any other adventure bike...czcams.com/video/dkPp6qC2mcw/video.html Masterpiece delivered.
Great products just got a 300 and having some trouble finding these for sale in Australia. Are they available or coming soon??
Thanks for your inquiry. We will be sending a shipment to Adventure Moto (Sydney and Brisbane stores) in a few weeks.
@@Outbackmotortek Hi, what about Italy?
Thanks,

@@blackmoonkey anticipated by late November or early December
Bonsoir,
Quel est le couple de serrage des longues vis de 180mm ?
Good evening,
What is the tightening torque of the 180mm long screws ?
45Nm
I want a few items for my 300 rally but there is no tabs for adding items to cart on the outback motek site. Am I doing something wrong err ?
Are you referring to the USA site? If so, it’s currently not taking orders until the 11th of March due to warehouse updating.
Very nice crash bars!! How much do they weight?
5.6kg. We supply a set of heavy duty brackets, which add the primary weight, luckily it’s further down low.
Bonjour, j'aimerais savoir quand seront disponibles les crash bar pour une crf 300l.
Merci
Nous avons terminé les tests de chute la semaine dernière. La fabrication démarre. La première disponibilité est juillet 2023
@@Outbackmotortek ok merci
Anyone try this with the SRC Moto crashbar with skidplate?
Can these be used with lower crash bars as well?
I doubt it. Our crash bars likely occupy the same mounting points as other manufacturers’ lower crash bars
Is there also an option available for the 300L?
We’re currently developing crash bars for the “L” model
Do you ship to US?? Looking for a set for crf250 rally
We have USA east and west west dealers, but we can’t confirm the compatibility with the 250Rally
Has anyone had an issue with the front mudguard rubbing against the cross brace?
There’s very little space between the fender and the frame. Without our additional cross brace the crash bars would not perform. Make the best effort to adjust the crash bars and the front fender to gain some clearance, please.
I have the same issue. Did you solve it? I saw on FB someone cut fender about 2 cm.
Any news with compatibility with the 250 rally?
I am not sure but I guess these aren't compatible since the frame on the 250 and 300 is different, I found that out when trying on Acerbis Frame guards for a 250 on my 300 rally.
But I am also pretty sure these guys have made crash bars for the 250 rally as well
Greetings
Great video, I'm ready to order one.
I called the phone number, but answer.
Thanks for assisting me 🇺🇸🎉🍾🇺🇸
I guess it would fit a CRF 300 L as well, right?
No, it will not
@@Outbackmotortek any plans to have one for 300L?
@@CezarLucan most likely yes
@@Outbackmotortek Any update when these will be available for the 300l?
@@TerribleWeekend haven’t had the chance to look into the potential of 300L crash bars yet
Do you have it for crf250l?
Not yet. Working on it though
Where do I purchase these?
What’s your country of residence?
@@Outbackmotortek USA (Louisiana)
@@airadaimagery692 currently out of stock due to the high demand, but we’ll airfreight another shipment in about three weeks: outbackmotortek.us/product/honda-crf-300rally-crash-bars/
@@Outbackmotortek Thanks!
This is a very bad idea. The design is flawed. The top front connection point is the weak point. The entire assembly that holds the headlight, the speedo and windscreen. It will bend and deform the first time it impacts. I had a a minor hit and deformed the entire front. Expensive part to replace every time you tip over....
It does work. Check our drop test video:
@@Outbackmotortek I've seen the test but that was on level ground not the bike in a rut and impacting directly at that point at the front trust me it will bend and deformed. I'm not banging your product I'm just saying that's a weak point , I'm trying to encourage you to improve on the design . I like that it covers higher on the fairing then some others but just from my experience that exact connection point is weak . Thanks for your products, and Thanks to anyone out there thinking outside the box and creating new products I love it.
@@adamday6573 thanks for your feedback. It’s even ground, however smashing a CRF300Rally against concrete surface twice in a row is tough to argue about.
We always improve the designs of our products.
@@Outbackmotortek I agree with Adam Day. I am currently putting my bike back together after dropping it in a rut and bending the attach point by the headlight. I still like the crash bars. I'm reinstalling the crash bars because I still think they're beneficial. The crash bars deformed my headlight bracket in a drop.
@@jeffburmester1909 must have been due to significant impact or most of the impact affected the top end of the crash bars. After smashing our bike against concrete twice the cluster bracket is still intact.
However, it’s still a possibility as there are dozens or hundreds of different crash scenarios.
Sorry, did not have any answer.
Someone will call you back
Dont buy the quality is not good no other exhaust wil fit. And you need to bent it and then is stil under stress and hitting the plastic
Thanks for voicing your opinion. The CRF300Rally crash bars are literally in our top 3 best selling products for three years now. Thousands of customers swear by it.
As per your comment regarding aftermarket exhaust compatibility, we don’t guarantee fitment with aftermarket parts, only the OEM components.
@@Outbackmotortek with the exhaust yes. But i try and the holes i van not get in alignment. The left side with some stress the right side no. And i believe you that you have a lot of happy costumers. But i if have buyers remors.
@@MamolaRandy if you’re having fitment issues we can help you with that. Please forward photos of the issue to our customer service info at outbackmotortek dot com
Thank you
