R118-1-1005
• Fixes a Known Flaw: The OEM rubber pad can punch through the cylinder header in a crash — these reinforcement bars brace the factory crash bars to prevent that damage.
• Straight Force Path: The bar geometry directs impact force in a nearly straight line to the frame, with no unnecessary bends that could fold or collapse under load.
• Superior Through Bolt: A heat-treated, CNC-machined through bolt mounts the bar at the engine — stronger and more reliable than the plastic inserts used by competing designs.
• Solid Clamp Connection: Full-wrap two-part industrial alloy clamps attach to 3/16 inch (4.7 mm) thick mounting flanges, giving a secure grip on the OEM bars without flex.
• Quick Installation: Installs and removes in about 15 minutes using the included stainless steel hardware, so it won't slow down your pre-trip prep.
• Material: Stainless steel tubing
• Tubing Diameter: 1 in (25.4 mm)
• Mounting Flange Thickness: 3/16 in (4.7 mm)
• Clamp Type: Full-wrap two-part high-strength alloy industrial clamps
• Through Bolt: Heat-treated, CNC-machined
• Finish: Silver electro-polish
