Ordered the black ones, thanks for the link. Just dropped in to C/H to see what was going on, one set of crash bars and a folding tip shifter later, I've melted the plastic off my credit card. Better step out of here for a bit.
I just ordered the black ones too. I hope a few orders from us will encourage them to get these out. Looking forward to really using this bike.
Just pulled the trigger on the black ones. Had an Altrider bash plate on my Tenere and fit and finish were superb. Thanks Harder1 for the pics and summary of your impressions.
I put my order in a few days ago for black Altrider crash bars. Hopefully transit time to Australia won't take too long when they start shipping them out.
Trigger Pulled on a Black set. Sounding like 4 weeks or so. I'm going to pick mine up at Altrider when they're done, so I'll post pics when that time comes. Nev, my B&B plate only took 7 days from Oz, so hopefully things move just as fast going your way!
The price is now posted for the skid plate, too ($240.97), but no pictures. I say we send Harder over there to get some spy shots!
Not sure what a farkle is, bits I guess, which I am over big time, cost me a fortune over the years, so now spend money on good oil, tyres and fuel and make what I need to travel on this beaut bike. Latest is a small block of English oak from an old block plane that hasn't had a blade in it for 35 yrs, screwed to the side stand to lengthen it, about 18 mm seems good. When riding it is hard to spend money in the shop, any shop.
Just put in an order for the Altrider crahsbars and skid in black. 4-5 weeks seems to be the wait time. As soon as they arrive I shall post up some images.
I am on board with these bars too, and order is placed. Black! It's the nearest thing to Fab's bars that we'll be able to buy!
The pictures don't do the bars justice! Everytime I go out to the garage I HAVE to touch them. I think "dead sexy" is a good choice of words!
A wife who can't keep her hands off her husband's sexy bars is a GOOD thing! We should all be so lucky!
