Subject: African Queens Crshbars


Hi,

AB>Does anyone one the list have experience with the crashbars available

I've got the standard ones at my '94 RD07 without any problems. They are
very stable, the mounting at the frame is well dimensioned and they fit
very smoothly into the fairing design of the bike, whthout making it thick.
Disadvantage: They are too near to the bike to rest your feet on them
during highway riding. But they protect the tank very good, I had two
crashes in Romania on gravel and nothing happened to the tank and fairing.

I would buy them again.

take care - Marcello.
