• Engine Protection: Lower bars use 1.25" (31.75mm) stainless steel tubing — twice the strength of 1" tube — to shield engine cases and vulnerable castings in a tip-over.
• Radiator & Plastics Coverage: Upper bars wrap around the tall Africa Twin's radiator and bodywork, where even a slow-speed fall can cause expensive damage.
• Filter Access: The DCT oil filter remains accessible with the crash bars installed, so routine maintenance doesn't require removing the system.
• Hand-TIG Welded Steel: Each bar is hand-TIG welded from stainless steel tubing for strength and long-term corrosion resistance on and off-road.
• Center Stand Compatible: The system is designed to work with the OEM center stand, so you don't have to choose between protection and convenience.

The Honda Africa Twin was built for riders who push deep into rough terrain — rocky climbs, muddy trails, and remote backcountry where drops are part of the ride. When that happens, these Lower Crash Bars are designed to take the hit before your engine or frame does.

Built from hand-TIG welded stainless steel tubing, the bars are CNC mandrel-formed for maximum strength and precise fitment around critical controls like the rear brake lever. Rear mounting flanges route crash energy into the lower frame instead of the engine, while thick stainless steel front brackets bolt directly to the frame for a solid, non-flexing connection.

These Lower Crash Bars are the foundation of AltRider’s 3-part crash protection system. Run them alone or expand later with Upper Crash Bars and the Full System for increased protection on more demanding terrain.

An optional integrated headlight guard is also available in steel mesh or clear polycarbonate to help protect one of the bike’s most expensive components when riding far from home. Available individually or as part of the Full System.

Install Instructions for the Full Crash Bar System:

• First Line of Defense: Engineered to absorb the first impact in a tip-over or low-side crash so the engine and other vital components never touch the ground
• Extra-Stiff Tubing: At 1.25 inch diameter, these bars are more than twice as stiff as standard 1-inch crash bars, giving you stronger protection without added bulk
• Frame-Mounted Impact Transfer: Mounting flanges route crash energy away from the motor and into the lower frame, where the bike is strongest
• Ergonomic Fit: CNC mandrel formed around the rear brake lever so the bars fit close to the bike without interfering with your foot controls
• DCT & OEM Compatible: Works with both DCT and manual models and is compatible with the factory belly pan and OEM center stand
• Quick Install: Designed to go on easily with included Loctite and first class manual

This upgraded clamping system features CNC billet upper clamps engineered for a remarkably easy, straightforward installation. By preserving full-diameter tubing instead of flattening the metal into weak flat bars, the design provides maximum structural strength exactly where your Africa Twin needs it.

Bypasses Fragile Engine Mount Locations

Frame Isolating

Attaches securely to rigid frame crossmembers to isolate brutal impacts from the actual engine block. Prevent expensive case cracking when slamming your heavy machine over loose rocks.

Rugged One Inch Tubing Profile

Stainless Strength

Crafted from premium, hand TIG.welded stainless steel to deliver unyielding protection in the deepest backcountry. The tough perimeter easily absorbs multiple impacts without shifting out of alignment.

Maintain Optimum Radiator Engine Cooling

Airflow Unlocked

The open, cage-style geometry ensures your radiator receives unrestricted, high-velocity airflow at all times. Keep your hard-working parallel-twin engine running cool during slow, technical trail crawls.

Smart Smart, integrated auxiliary lighting solutions. solutions

Integrated light mounts.

These crash bars feature built-in hardpoints specifically engineered to mount off-road auxiliary lighting. The elegant, integrated design provides an extremely robust foundation capable of securely supporting even the largest, heaviest high-output trail lights without vibrating or loosening.

Precise Fit

Designed specifically to match the unique chassis layout of the 2020 through 2023 Africa Twin generation. Enjoy an incredibly tight, rattle-free fitment that looks completely factory-installed.

No Permanent Frame Modifications Required

Direct Bolt

Installs seamlessly utilizing existing factory engine mounts and frame points with basic hand tools. There is absolutely no cutting, drilling, or welding required to mount this armor.

High Strength Metric Fasteners Provided

Hardware Included

Ships complete with premium, automotive-grade metric mounting hardware to guarantee maximum joint security. The heavy-duty bolts refuse to strip out or vibrate loose on rough washboard roads.

Shield Your Vital Transmission Covers

Box Protection

Provides a robust shield for the expansive side cases of the Honda parallel-twin motor. Deflect crushing impacts away from fragile aluminum engine side-covers during trail tip-overs.

Interconnected Left Right Support Bars

Solid Crossbrace

Features an integrated front cross-brace that ties the left and right sides together tightly. This load-sharing design drastically increases structural rigidity when hit from either side.

Straightforward Home Garage Installation Process
