Thanks!  Looks like they have a new site they're switching to:

I like those.  The connection piece looks beefier than some others.   :smt023

I have the MA's crash bars and as of last night was able to incorporate with the Touratech sump guard and factory center stand!!!!javascript:emoticon(':D')

Very Happy Keep in mind my Tiger is 2001 model and that I did need to make a minor modification to the right sump guard bracket. If I can figure out how to post pictures, I'll provide evidence.

I'm seriously considering the Ma's bars.  They looks pretty rugged, and from talking to them, they were designed to help facilitate MX, so they don't have to be removed to work on the bike.

Hey M.T.   I know the Happy Trails Crash bar is not popular with the Tiger community but instead of waiting for months on the TT I went with HT not really all that bad.  At only 5'8'' with a 30 inseam I wanted lay down protection ASAP.

Hey there Sam-



Funny timing as I was up 'till almost midnight last night bolting on the Touratech guards that I picked up yesterday.

 

It was asigh of relief to get sometthing on there, because although I'm not super short, I'm certainly not flat footing the bike either, and I have been nervous about dropping it from day 1.



I think those bars of yours look fine-  the Touratechs look good too, although right now they are the only thing still shiny on the bike!



Good luck to you-  Hope we don't ever need them!

Back to you, however, the way I ride it's just a matter of time.

They also touch down pretty quickly even with a not-so-aggressive lean angle! They are no option for me...



The TT bars are the prettiest, the TB bars the most protective. I guess all the others are in the middle. The Fehlings look similar to the Hepko-Becker bars except for the diagonal piece with lotsa wholes for lights and farkels... I would opt for the HB bars if the TT are not available...

That is an aspect I had not thought of.  That wouldn't work well for me either.  Oh well, back to square one.

Anyone have any suggestions for how/where they have mounted any lights to the TT bars?  I have the TT's installed and have a set of PIAA 002x's that I want to install, just trying to figure out the best installation location for them.  Not totally set on installing to the bars, but thinking about it.  



I may make a separate light bar, but thought it might be as easy to fab a couple of bolt on brackets to the TT bars.



If anyone has any good suggestions or pics, let me know.



My bike is an 06 for those wondering.



TIA
