New Touratech BMW F800GS Adventure Upper Crash Bars

Touratech adds protection to the vulnerable upper plastic on the F800GSA.

Published on 07.08.2015

The BMW F800GS Adventure is an off-road capable Adventure Bike with excellent long-distance touring range. It’s a rugged and durable Adventure Motorcycle that arrives from the factory, outfitted with tough, effective lower crash bars, but the bulging upper plastic area remains vulnerable to damage.

Most F800GSA riders would like to extend their protection to cover the upper plastic and Touratech has answered the call with a new high-quality upper crash bar option. The compact design maximizes protection of expensive bodywork and radiators while providing optimum maneuverability for the BMW F800GS Adventure riders.

The new Touratech Upper Crash Bars perfectly accentuate the aggressive lines of the BMW F800GS Adventure.

The Touratech Upper Crash Bars bolt right on to the stock lower crash bars and a connecting bar allows them to transfer the force of a fall effectively around the motorcycle. Their design perfectly accentuates the aggressive lines of the BMW F800GS Adventure. They’re strong, electro-polished and match the finish of the OEM lower crash bars while providing the rider with a sturdy base to mount lights, storage or other important Adventure Travel accessories.
