Fitting Givi engine bars

I am looking at getting a set of these for my XTX as I like the look. They aren't too big and obvious but look like doing the job.

Has anyone had any experience of fitting these to the Xor R. It looks like you have to take exhaust the downpipes off as one of the tubes goes behind them.

Do you, and is it an easy enough job for one man and a spanner?

Cheers for any help.

Got these on my bike and easy job. I stacked it at about 50 and the bike went sliding up the road and the bars saved the engine no question at all. Money well spent.

Cheers for the feedback, I'll have to see about getting these come payday. Can you confirm that the exhaust does have to come off?

A least I can justify spending this money on the bike.

"It's an investment on not having spend loads of money when I drop the bike dear!"

" No, I mean if I happen to drop the bike dear!"

Hi,
you will just have to remove lambda.

Cheers, sounds like something I can manage.

If the lambda sensor is the thing on the lhs header pipe, then i don't even have one to move as mines an 06 XTX. i don't think these appeared until 07.

Hiya Bishop, can you let us know how you get on with these bars if and when you plump for them? I want some protection so I'm not paranoid if pottering down the lanes and aren't sure whether to go for bars or bash plate or both.
Thank you,
Selina
