The Essential Guide to Any Motorcycle Traveler Online Course: https://rtwadventures.com/onlinecou...

Let’s talk about the motorcycle crash bars – do they really worth it? Well, the answer is yes and no! It’s really depends from the bike and from the accident. I don’t have a simple answer for you, but I can tell you what I think, stay with me!
The usual advice will be – if you plan to travel the world, you definitely will need it. In the case of accident they will protect your bike from serious damages. That statement could be truth, but also could be totally wrong.

There are few types of motorcycle crash bars:

Sliders – they are usually recommended for sport bikes. They are massive metal cylinders, or another shape, mounted to the frame or to the engine and idea behind is that if you slide down they will keep the important parts of your motorcycle untouched.

The second type, much bigger then sliders and they are made from bended pipes. Designed to protect the engine, the radiator or cylinder heads. There are many different options, sizes and models. The most famous is on GS 1200 boxers.

The third type, more likely to be used on adventure bikes. They are design to protect the engine, but also the sides of your motorcycle. You can find many videos and picture evidences that they really work. There hundreds of brand and models on the market so you can choose the one you like the most.

There is another one type, in last few years become more popular; mostly after the new GS 1200 Adventure was launched. It’s combination between the bottom and the top part. The idea is to protect your motorcycle from any crash. You can see it now on new Honda Africa Twin and on KTM adventure as well.
