AltRider Crash Bar and Skid Plate System for the BMW R 1200 GS Adventure Water Cooled

Save by ordering the Crash Bars and Skid Plate for the water cooled R 1200 GS Adventure as a kit instead of separate pieces.

The R 1200 GS Adventure Water Cooled generates a lot of buzz in the ADV world. At over 500 pounds it also generates a lot of force in a crash. Provide absolute protection for your liquid cooled R 1200 GS Adventure with the Crash Bar and Skid Plate System from AltRider.

The heart of the system is the 3/16 inch (4.76 mm) stainless steel bracket on each side that serves as a mounting point for the crash bars and skid plate – linking them together to form an incredibly strong unit that distributes force evenly throughout the entire structure. The brackets attach to the frame of the motorcycle ensuring impact from a crash isn't transferred to your water boxer motor. Two sturdy M12 Torx bolts secure each bracket preventing them from twisting on impact.

The AltRider Crash Bars are constructed from stout 1.25 inch (31.75 mm) stainless steel tubing and provide complete protection to the cylinder head and motor in the event of a fall. Available in powder coat black. See a full description of the crash bars.

The 3/16 inch (4.76 mm) thick AltRider Skid Plate provides one piece tire-to-tire protection of the entire underside of the motorcycle and exhaust. The patent pending design completely isolates the motor from impacts to the skid plate. Available in anodized silver or black. See a full description of the skid plate.

To see the AltRider Crash Bars and Skid Plate in action, check out the AltRider Crash Test Part One and Part Two.

GSAW - Protection package

I bought the Skid Plate and lower crash bars which work really nicely as a unit - obviously much more complete coverage and much stronger design. The fit is very accurate - not alot of pushing and prying required to get things to line up. I also bought the valve cover protectors and radiator guards to complete the package. Very nice stuff and made right here in the USA.
