But if you’re counting on OEM crash bars to protect your engine, then you should know that these can do more harm than good. It has been documented that the OEM bars’ hard rubber pad can punch a hole in the cylinder header, which is why AltRider has produced a Reinforcement Bar to brace against impact and strengthen the entire crash bars structure. The Altrider design directs force in an almost straight line to the frame of the motorcycle, with no unnecessary bends or flimsy band clamps to bend under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e1 inch (25.4 mm) diameter stainless steel tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eHeat-treated and CNC-machined through bolt included\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eMounts to OEM bars with full-wrap two-part high-strength alloy industrial clamps\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eAvailable in a silver electro-polish finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eElectro-polish is an organic process that is close to the factory bar finish but we cannot guarantee an exact match\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003c\/ul\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eStarting with 1 inch (25.4 mm) diameter stainless steel tubing, the Reinforcement Bar is laser cut, CNC bent and hand TIG welded. The Reinforcement Bars mount at the engine with an included engine through bolt. Unlike other designs that use plastic inserts, this heat-treated and CNC-machined through bolt provides critical strength and stability, and AltRider is the only one on the market to utilize this design. The Reinforcement Bars mount to the OEM bars with full-wrap two-part high-strength alloy industrial clamps attached to 3\/16 inch (4.7 mm) thick mounting flanges. Installation and removal is a 15 minute job with the included stainless steel hardware.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAltRider’s Reinforcement Bars are available in a silver electro-polish finish to match the OEM crash bars. They are compatible with OEM accessory crash bars as well as stock BMW crash bars on the Adventure model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible with OEM crash bars for the GS and Adventure model stock crash bars\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOT compatible with BMW Option 719 billet cylinder head covers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOT compatible with BMW R1250 Series Valve Cover Guards BMW part# 77148406187\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Shata Castings Co., Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47711877136601,"sku":"R118-1-1005","price":146.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0787\/8744\/4953\/files\/R118-1-1005-1.jpg?v=1782143564","url":"https:\/\/altrider.es\/products\/altrider-reinforcement-crash-bars-for-the-bmw-r-1250-gs-gsa","provider":"Altrider","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
