Does anyone make a crash bar, engine guard for the RS models. I'm sure some mods would have to be made.

Nothing in a the OEM or after market....perhaps custom...but would probably require complete removal of the belly pan or drilling it...modify it in some way.... Rolling Eyes

Just don't drop it. Razz

You could probably fit some K100RS4V bars on it. The easiest approahc would be to convert the fairing lowers and radiator to K100RS4V parts. If you tried to do it with the K11RS lowers you'd have some god-ugly holes. In fact, the K100RS4V bars are probably close to where the K11RS fairing lowers are.

Just don't drop it.....

I thought about doing the same thing before I painted my fairings. What I would try is get a used belly pan and experiment. A hole can be made to be nice if done in a creative way. I wonder if the bar would go up into the upper forward fairing also. If it does I would have to give it some serious thought. Belly pans are expensive so I would have to put a lot of thought in to it before that first hole is drilled. But again, not dropping it is always the best way.
