Looking at the bag of nuts and bolts i got with the crash bars, i see a big round spacer.
Anyone know whereabouts its used?
Instructions don`t seem to show where it goes?

I don't know if these are hepco bars but if memory serves me right  it goes on the right bottom mount where the bar attaches to the footpeg bracket , I seem to recall a spacer there like you describe

Hi guys.  :)

rf9rider, can you do me a favor, please.

Can you measure the bar that goes across the front of the engine and joins the two halfs of the engine bars together, the set I have is missing the fitting kit and the cross bar, to buy it costs 49 euro's!!! from Germany.

Can you  measure the bar from hole centre to hole centre, and the length of the 'bent' ends with the hole it. I should be able to make the missing bar, also the spacer you menitioned, would you be kind enough to measure that as well.

Thanks.  :)

I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint
