• Full Coverage: Stock crash bars leave the expensive magnesium VVT valve covers exposed — these domed guards shield the entire cover from rocks and drops.
• Stays in a Crash: The interlocking stainless clamp system locks onto the bars so the guards stay in place when you're sliding, not flying off when you need them most.
• No Cheap Mounts: Unlike competitors using electric conduit clamps that break on first impact, AltRider uses custom cast 304 stainless steel clamps built to survive real crashes.
• Strong and Light: Formed 5052 aluminum gives you real protection without adding unnecessary weight for technical off-road riding.
• Clean Look: Contoured to follow your OEM crash bar lines — looks like it came from the factory, not bolted on as an afterthought.
• Quick Install: Designed to go on easily with included Loctite and first class manual

Stock crash bars protect the engine cases — but they leave those magnesium VVT valve covers exposed. One rock strike or low-speed tip-over on a hard surface can crack a cover that costs serious money to replace. These guards close that gap.

The domed shape isn't cosmetic. It's contoured precisely to the R1250 valve cover profile so there are no exposed edges. The mounting system uses custom cast stainless clamps that interlock with the OEM bars — no flex, no rattle, and nothing flies off in a real crash. This is a deliberate design choice over the conduit-style clamps other brands use, which tend to fail on first impact.

Pair these with the AltRider Reinforcement Bars and you have the most complete protection available on OEM crash bars. Because when you're far from help, "almost covered" isn't a plan.
