Been looking around at crash bars, but wonder if the Ten really needs them. I will be thinking about a decent metal bash plate mind as I usually seem to end up on rocky lanes... stuff like Sarn Helen in the Beacons, but then also wonder how good the standard plastic bash works. I used to have a quick release plastic bash plate on my KTM 450 and nothing broke it, and it took some serious abuse... far more than I will be putting the Ten through.
I sometimes ask myself is all this aftermarket stuff really really necessary ?? |

Crashbars IMVHO seem to be an unnecessary extra lump of weight to lug around and certain designs/types can make access to oil filter, timing inspection covers, petrol tank covers/bolts, radiator cap and other regular service items more time-consuming to get at. However, some people swear by 'em! |

Crash bars ?...
But engine bars for sure.. I'm moding a set of Yamaha ten engine bars at the moment to fit my XTR..I'm makeing them bolt to the 6mm thick bash plate so 4 bolts remove plate & bars as one unit.. I have a couple of nice gurges on my water pump.. why it's still intacked I don't know...

The Ten does not really need engine bars as it has a built in protection. I use the large Touratech bash plate which covers just about everything including the wasser pumpe. It's well cool.

I have a adventure spec bash plate and engine bars... love the look of the bash plate, but engine bars i hate with passion! This was on the bike when i bought it. Unfortunately you can't separate them :-/
I might replace them for some aluminium bash plate without the bars, and get additional water pump cover from OTR. |
