HEED Crash Bars & transmission reinforcement - BMW R1100GS Build

Published 2023-02-16
Time to turn Brutus into a proper adventure bike ready for the rough road. Bought of HEED Crash Bars from Poland and transmission reinforcement for my BMW R1100GS. They were not the easiest to fit had to get a little bit creative but it worked out in the end. They feel strong and durable and really well put together. We'll see how they last in time.

    Brutus Maximus! 😉 Nice to have some extra reinforcements for the bike. ✌️
  • I had HEED bars on my old tiger 800. Absolute faf however they do their job well
  • @jpmfx
    I've had similar experiences adding crash bars.
  • I wonder if you can still take on and of the valve covers without a 3 hours mechanics session? You need to have some space to make sure that the rubber donut in the spark plug hole stays in place when mounting.
  • Great Video Alex, Are you going to rebuild the engine? Or fit a secondhand one with low km. I've seen online with only 30,000km for around 500 Euro.
  • @JohnAlot
    Mine fit perfectly the first time I Installed them. After her being pushed over multiple times parked in New York City the bars are now warped & it takes hours to get them aligned when I remove them. I assume you'll have the same issue
  • @JR-tl9hu
    I would also like to buy crash bars for a SYM NH-T 200... Would they be available for purchase from you? I am from Slovakia...

    Hello, Do you have a link to order these crash bars ? Best regards
  • Hello Alex, just seen your video. I've just installed the Heed crashbars on mine 1100. It fits great but the rearbolts on the underside don't seem to go in anywhere. How did you do that?
  • @Tuomas_Purhonen
    Are there any skidplates that does fit with heed crashbars that doesn't cost almost the same as crashbars itself.
  • @k1ngbud1st91
    Salut Alex. Pe partea mecanica vreo investiție? Sau nu e necesar acum?
