Hi guys, this is Jeremy here. We should have updated you earlier about the shipping for the AltRider crash bars for the TR650. It’s been just as frustrating for us as it has been for you. Due to several challenges with the design at production, it caused the production to keep stopping while the tooling was being redesigned a few times. This has been one of the causes of the many delays. In addition, we’re also working hard on the BMW R 1200 GS WC crash bar design -- as much as you guys don’t want to hear that, this is the truth. BMW gave us a unique opportunity to display at the BMW Motorrad Days in Garmisch, DE for their 90th anniversary. As an up and coming manufacturer, this was a big deal and we needed those R12 bars done – and this caused a little more delay as well. We apologize for not updating you all earlier. We wanted to get the production on the TR 650 bars completed on time but we were not able to deliver. At this time, we had an emergency meeting and will have a solid ship date tomorrow.
As for those who have pre-ordered the bars – no one has been charged yet for their pre-orders. It is standard AltRider procedure to take your payment information during the pre-order to keep your place in line but we do not authorize the card until the product has left our warehouse. Just to let you know – nobody has been charged for the bars yet.
I understand if you can no longer wait for our bars. For those who do wait, it’s promised that the design is significantly better than the current offerings in the market and will be worth the short wait that remains. If you have any questions or concerns, please email us directly at info@altrider.com or call us at 922-3629.
