Great video and saved me £50 per hour on labour at Motorcycle Shop. Enjoyed working on the bike as that is part of ownership

Very useful. Still took me an hour to do! Getting those angle right. Keep it loose until last minute :-)

Great video MotoSouth! I especially liked that you also pointed out important things to watch out for, like the clearence for the throttle and the left handed thread on right mirror.
I only had a minor mess up during installation. When tightening the whole assembly I had some loctite residue on my hands which left some ugly fingerprints on the shiny black paint of the new bar end weights.
Any idea how I could remove the loctite residue from the bar end weights without destroying the paint?

[@sergilakes2331]

Great video!! make a video installing the Atlas

[@MotoSouth]

I have a video from when I installed it on my last bike on the channel. Process will be the same. Thanks for watching!

[@ClisClis]

should've put that info with the different length screws right at the beginning. drove me crazy 🤣

[@MotoSouth]

It did the same to me. I didn’t want to be the only one having all that fun 😂

[@joshuaschimanski2317]

Got some as presents for my Vstrom. Was worried as another video I saw was cutting at the grips.

[@scottnathaneaitzstein3688]

Hi, could I ask where u got your oil filler cap from.

[@stefanosemisa9288]

Looks like I can do that as well... In a couple of hours and putting the right amount of effort in it ;)

The dad I never had

[@MotoSouth]

😂

[@samhill3496]

Good job. What kind of throttle lock, tensioner do you have mounted? Also I am replacing stock bars with Pro Taper AdV bars. Will I have to use universal mounts from BarkBusters? Thanks

[@MotoSouth]

I’m using an Atlas throttle lock. With the ProTapers you can tap the ends or just use the universal ends from BarkBusters.

[@durtyred86]

Very informative but, which one should I do first lol?? The Bark busters or the double takes? This is my first bike and I'm kinda at a crossroads with which one should come first due to the use of locktight. 🤔
Edit: Also, why did it look like you took off the throttle knob of the double take, then put it back on...?? What am I missing there?

[@MotoSouth]

I would do the BarkBusters first. The stock guards offer little to no protection. The stock mirrors aren’t ideal but they work. Not sure what you mean about the throttle knob?

[@rodneyboynton7607]

Did the adapter you use loctite on the end of the bar come with the barkbusters kit? Also did you use the 7/8" kit or 1-1/8" kit? Mine came with the swage nut, not the adapter you show...

[@MotoSouth]

I used the Tenere 700 specific kit. Came with everything

[@kmeconst]

Where did you get it from?

[@trevsockman8073]

What turn signals are you using, they are nice!

[@MotoSouth]

Denali T3. Super bright!

[@ardae5402]

Hello. Is the barkbusters better for wind protection than the stock ones?

[@garyrourke3284]

That is my question also….I find the stock ones don’t protect very well from the cold ….hope we get an answer

[@MotoSouth]

Not much difference as far as I can tell. You could go with one of the larger variations like the Storm for better wind protection. It would basically just replace the plastic shield part.

[@SamiNami]

Are the vibrations worse after these?

[@MotoSouth]

I didn’t notice any change from stock
