Color:Silver Fitment: Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin (2016-current). Color: Silver. The Lower Crash Bars are the foundation of AltRider's 3-part Crash Bar system for the Africa Twin. These bars are constructed in the United States from 1.25 inch (31.75 mm) diameter steel tubing with 0.079 inch (2.0 mm) wall thickness. Boasting more than twice the stiffness compared to 1 inch (25.4 mm) tubing, no other crash bar design on the market offers such robust protection for the Africa Twin. This added strength enabled AltRider engineers to design the Lower Crash Bars to take the first hit in a tip-over or low-side crash before any of the bike's vital components come in contact with the ground. The hand-TIG welded crash bars are CNC mandrel formed around the rear brake lever for excellent ergonomics while still providing powerful protection. The rear of the Lower Crash Bars mount in-board of the right foot peg by way of the 3/16 inch (4.8 mm) mounting flanges, which will transfer impact energy away from the motor to the lower frame. Up front, 3/16 inch (4.8 mm) thick stainless steel brackets fastens the bars directly to the frame. The Upper Crash Bars provide complete coverage for the bike's vulnerable radiator and expensive plastic fairings. The 1 inch (25.4 mm) diameter stainless steel tubing is hand-TIG welded in the USA and mounts directly to frame rather than the engine case. The Lower and Upper Crash Bars meet at 3/16 inch (4.8 mm) thick stainless steel mounting brackets, which tie to the front sub-frame and headstock using included M6 bolts, a dramatic advantage over all other designs on the market. This ensures a solid connection to the motorcycle's frame, especially when installed in conjunction with the Reinforcement Crash Bars. Once the upper system is tied to the stout lower 1.25 inch (31.75 mm) bars the system becomes clearly the strongest solution option. PEM captive nuts make for easy removal for servicing.

Outstanding craftsmanship and fit.
I ordered the full set for my Africa twin. The install was fairly straightforward and only took me about 2 hours. Not only there are these extremely well-made but the quality far surpassed what I expected. iOffer incredible protection and they look really good. I'm glad I made the investment in quality.

Best Africa Twin Crash Protection
Works fantastic, I have laid the bike on the ground to see the clearances between the fairing and crash bars and there was plenty of room! These bars are stiff. The lowers also double for highway pegs for your feet to change position.

Perfect fit, although the ATAS stock skid plate had to be replaced with the AltRider skid plate. This was overly clear in the description.
