What owners report
On a 300-mile trip, I hit a road dip in a corner, and the bottom crash bar impacted the ground due to clearance issues. Because the crash bars make ground contact before the footpegs, they pose a critical safety hazard and cannot be safely used. As I have removed them for my personal safety. When a crash bar touches the ground before your footpegs or feelers do, it violates basic motorcycle safety geometry. Stock footpegs are designed to fold up and scrape as a tactile warning; rigid crash bars don't foldâthey lock against the pavement, lift the front or rear wheel, and instantly dump the bike.
The factory headlights are not capable of safely illuminating the roadway while operating the motorcycle at night.
Headlight does not provide adequate illumination at night, making riding extremely dangerous.
