    crash bars for an 1150

    Hi all,

    I'm looking for some crash bars/engine guards for my 1150. Searches have turned up bars for other GS's but not the 1150. Does anyone know a source for engine guards that are made for, or will work on, an 1150?

    thanks,

    Let me know when you find some........as in good luck. Ive yet to find a set. The factory option crash bars are crazy rare and expensive. I have 2 vintage aftermarket crash bars that came with mine.....for the same side. Good luck.

      That is kinda what I expected. I'll let you know if I find two for the other side.

      Thanks,

        Maybe 1150s dont crash? Oh wait, I proved that wrong..
        Anyway, this is what the ones I have look like. Not sure what GSM stands for.

          Good luck finding them. It took me years before a set showed up, and then only a few months until another showed. Funny thing is that I jumped on the first set which is made with round tube, but the second set I saw used square tube.

            I have the square tubed style on my 1150.
            Got them of of eBay for $45. New in the package.
            GSM is the manufacturer, they made bars for lots of different bikes.
