Do you know what testing has been done with it ? The mountings look the same as the Yam one, and if Yamaha have pulled the previous design then this sounds like the problem might be more related to the effects of the bike rather than problems with the manufacturing ??

The Yamaha bars form a rigid frame between the front engine mounts and rear centre stand mounts (as does this one), so it's going to be subjected to the same forces that resulted in the Yamaha bars breaking.

Given that the Yamaha bar/alloy bash plate combo is the best part of �200+ and TT sell thier offering for �200+ I fear the price may be nearer this end of the scale than the �120 for the OTR offering, of course the OTR offering is rally tested......
