OEM V7 Stone crash bars

(1/3) > >>

guzziv7fan:
AF1 have the OEM crash bars for the V7 for $69.00 dollars.

My question is this crash guard OK? The price is odd to me.

Would like to see a picture of it mounted on a bike and maybe some comments good or bad.

The site show a rather vague picture of it mounted on an older smaller headed bike. The picture is chop showing little of the bike, hard to tell what it really look like mounted. Can't tell if it would clear the newer heads or not.

Harbor Freight price on this thing.

I posted this response in the other thread. Solid one piece crash bar, I think Agostini is now making the OEM hence the 50% off price.

This video shows the installation, but they put it on BACKWARDS.  

CAUTION : I would CALL them to make sure it will fit with the larger cylinders on the new V7's - 2013 and up.

Cam3512:
No, the video was just a mistake. They should only mount one way, the correct way.

I think you'll be fine.

I agree with all of the replies.  I got an OEM crash bar, part number GU973217200008, from RPM cycle, and put it on my '13 V7 Stone shortly after I got the bike in May 2013.  The bike looks like it left the factory that way.  Very solid, trouble free bar.  And, yes, it does work.  I've dropped the bike on both sides, and each time the bars protected the heads, with no damage to the bars, either.  Yes, I know, I'm a klutz.

One caution:  choose the side attaching bolts carefully.  If they're too long, you can drive the ends into the soft aluminum crankcase when you tighten them against their lock nuts.

I believe these are the ones. Check towards the bottom of the thread. http://wildguzzi.com/forum/index.php?topic=30214.0

I had a set briefly, and I believe I sold them to JAS67 (on this board) years ago. I think I had to pull a header off, and I didn't care for the way they looked on my bike once mounted. I then purchased the Breva 750 guards. Here's the similar version: http://www.af1racing.com/store/Scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=60959

Here's the Breva bars on my bike, and you don't really notice them once painted. I don't know if they'll clear the cylinder on the newer models.
