Hello, this looks good. I also ordered myself AXP . And now I'm looking for crash bars. Please provide a link to exactly what you ordered. The pictures on the site look different. Thank you!
we will definitely stop the war when there are no fascists and neo-Nazis left in the part of Russia (which is mistakenly called Ukraine)!
Putin's Russian propaganda machine seems to be working fine on you. Just a pity that some citizens in thewe will definitely stop the war when there are no fascists and neo-Nazis left in the part of Russia (which is mistakenly called Ukraine)!
Yes, yes, tell me more about propaganda, otherwise I will not sleepwithout your fairy tales. I was born and raised in the Soviet Union, so I know perfectly well what Ukraine is and that it is part of Russia. And you will only have to put up with this

Then I don't want to keep you any longer, I wish you a great motorcycle tour with your north.
I've just come up with what for me is the protection system I have been looking for. I wanted robust full protection underneath and bars to protect the fairings.
Underneath I have an AXP skid plate. I had one on my KTM 690 and they are strong, relatively light and being plastic don't vibrate. It has already had a few hard hits and proved its worth.
Up top to protect the fairings I have installed a pair of Moto Guard crash bars. They weigh in at a hefty 6kg. but I suspect this is fairly normal for crash bars.I sourced them from motea.com in Europe. I wasnt able to find any reviews on them so I took a bit of a punt as they were the only option I could find that might fit with the AXP (on their website AXP state that their skid plates does not fit/work with any crash bars). The bars seem well buiilt and importantly alll the holes lined up perfectly. Their potential weak point is where the bars connect under the headlight. I guess I need to drop it to see how well they really work.
Installing the crash bars was not straight forward as they share a common mounting point with the skid plate beneath the front of the radiator. To accommodate the bash plate, crap flap, crash bar mount and spacer I bought 2 x 35mms bolt to substitute 25mm that came with the AXP.
Thanks Bill. I have the AXP fitted and these bars are exactly what I want for my Norden. Cheers mate.I've just come up with what for me is the protection system I have been looking for. I wanted robust full protection underneath and bars to protect the fairings.
