Here is how I carry my tools: www.roiamoto.com/toolroll Thanks for checking it out! Would love to hear your feedback!

[@davewv300]

Just finished installing barkbusters on my 300l and thanks to this excellent tutorial it went flawlessly. Very helpful! Thank you!

[@RoiaMoto]

Hey Dave!! Glad to hear the instructional video was useful to you!! I really tried to record every single step to make sure everybody can do it 😀!

[@basharteg5190]

Thanks for the clear, easy to follow directions. I watched your video once, went and put them on my 300L exactly like you did. No surprises, nothing you didn't cover came up.

[@RoiaMoto]

Happy to hear the video was helpful and complete!

[@aminrajabi]

As others have said, this was an excellent tutorial. Thanks for making the install so much easier!!

[@alexanderwright9064]

Well, mate! I watched this vid a month ago. Just got my barkbusters exactly the same as yours. Making my installation easy. Thanks . .

[@RoiaMoto]

Hey Alex Thanks as always for leaving your comment here on the channel! Have you had Barkbusters before? I still think they are the best option out there. Glad to hear the installation was easy following the video. Cheers

[@alexanderwright9064]

@RoiaMoto No, I haven't had them before. But we know they are pretty much the best .Here in Australia ! Great vidios mate.!

[@raycummings8754]

Fantastically clear and helpful - well done!

[@RoiaMoto]

Thanks, Ray!! To glad to know you’ve found the video useful! Cheers

[@VassiliySmith]

On the gas throttle, it is make sense to use some silicone/liquid gasket between spacer and rubber to prevent sand and dust coming inside moving part. Especially if you falling down on the sand.

[@RoiaMoto]

Nice tip! Hadn’t thought about that! Thanks for sharing

[@jamiegray1367]

Just installed my Barkbusters today. Excellent step by step tutorial. Well done and many thanks. Happy biking. 👍

[@RoiaMoto]

Glad it helped! Safe ride ✌️

[@davidcamenga431]

Thanks for the video! Just completed my install. Video very helpful.

[@RoiaMoto]

Thanks for the comment! Stoked to hear that the video was useful to you!

[@danielcardona2552]

Followed step by step your instructions. Perfect!

[@RoiaMoto]

Hey Daniel!! Glad to hear it worked out and the video was useful! Cheers

[@siriusmyst5310]

Thank you for this step by step video, makes it easy to follow. Just came from garage and one thing i didn't manage was screw in that 35mm m6 bolt on throttle side, just goes hard and I feel that I will strip the threads so gave up. I will try tomorrow to retapp the thread, maybe its paint or shavings messing around... One thing Barkbuster should do is make right spacer 1 or 2mm thicker so we dont have to cut the peace of grip but ok... Greetings from balkans.

[@RoiaMoto]

Hello there! Always good to hear from the Balkan riders here on the channel! Glad you enjoyed the video. Do you have the Rally or regular L version? For the Rally it’s a different mounting kit from Barkbusters

[@noneyourb172]

I like to cut a little square of old tire tube and put it in between the inner clamps and the bar. That prevents metal-on-metal contact so bumping your guards into trees or the ground doesn't cause the entire guard to shift and scratch the bars (and this will eventually rust).

[@RoiaMoto]

Nice tip! Thanks for sharing, mate!

[@craiglagden3608]

I have a crf300l here in Australia. But i have fixed heated grips, so my bark busters are different and fitted a 8 inch light bar

[@RoiaMoto]

Did you get a different model or is it the same one shown in the video?

[@craiglagden3608]

@RoiaMoto mine is a 2022 model. Brought it second hand.on the Australia model all the lights are LEDs all around

[@RoiaMoto]

You guys got very lucky with the all LED lighting. Really looks much better.

[@foaley77]

did you hook up the Led to the High Beam Switch? If so how did you do it?

[@alexanderwright9064]

Great vidio . I just ordered all the same I did not know there was bike specific. So following your instructions have ordered And don't need to b angry when installing Ha ha!

[@RoiaMoto]

Nice! Glad to hear the video was useful and helped you in your decision!

[@aegeanadventure]

Thank you so much this very detailed explanation video. I trimmed the white plastic a bit longer than 3mm in order to guarantee, I think it’s not a problem?

[@RoiaMoto]

My pleasure! It’s not a problem

[@alex-rx2vu]

very good job done, perfect & also perfect speaking, thank you

[@RoiaMoto]

Thanks for the comment, Alex!

[@Fran_FF3]

Thanks!

[@jankabelak5531]

Hello, How about simply adding one additional spacer on the right side (between Barkbuster spacer and the handlebar)? That would make it unnecessary to cut off a piece of the rubber grip. I'm now deciding between this Barkbusters handguards and Zeta ones. Zeta have also the dedicated handguards model for CRF300L / Rally. I like black color of Zeta metals but they use bigger spacer and the whole thing widens the handlebars...

[@RoiaMoto]

I guess it would work but I like the idea of having the wrap-around bar sitting flush against the side of the handlebar. For one, it doesn’t add much width, and I have the feeling it will transmits less force to the bolt in case of a fall. Important. This Barkbusters model works with the original handlebar only. If you are thinking of changing the handlebar in the near future hold off on the handguard. I’ve done this mistake!

[@Aulives]

Thanks for the video dude! Fantastic help.

[@RoiaMoto]

Glad it helped!

[@ToddDavis-yb6qn]

Great video!

[@RoiaMoto]

Thanks!

[@craiglagden3608]

I see you brought our Australia product

[@RoiaMoto]

Hi Craig Totally. I only use Barkbusters on my motorcycles. Hands downs the best handguards! Cheers

[@alpap1980]

Are they plu g n play with the stock handlebar?

[@RoiaMoto]

Yes, with the stock handlebar it will work without any issues. That’s what is shown on this video. Make sure to get the model listed in the description of the video if you have the stock handlebar. If you don’t have the stock handlebar bar then another model is needed.

[@drorvega9446]

Прекрасно! Тоже собираюсь это сделать. Вы замечаете подергивание мотоцикла на 1 и 2 передачи на низких оборотах?

[@RoiaMoto]

Thanks! Yes, I would say specially in first gear at lower speeds it is jerky. I usually then also use the clutch to modulate the power. This is a common problem with new motorcycle that need to comply with EURO 5 emission regulations.

[@drorvega9446]

@@RoiaMoto спасибо, друг! Ты меня успокоил. А то я очень расстроился сначала. Есть какое-либо решение проблемы?

[@RoiaMoto]

The simple suggestion which helps a little bit is to install a Throttle Tamer. You can search online for "G2 Throttle Tamer". I'm going to install one shortly on my CRF300L and will share the process here on the channel. The other option which is expensive, is to pay for a new tuning of the engine. In the end the real problem is that the engine is tuned out of the factory extremely lean to comply with emission regulations. An experience tuner can change that and give you a smooth power delivery.

[@drorvega9446]

@@RoiaMoto thanks, bro! I will try first variant. Do you use Tusk accessories? Panniers, for example.

[@RoiaMoto]

I see that the Tusk stuff is very popular in the USA but I’ve never seen here where I live for sale. There will be a video shortly here on the channel showing each upgrade I have done so far. Do you have access to Tusk where you live?

[@donreed1133]

On my 2021 CRF300L I tapped out the bar ends from 6mm to 8mm, so I could use the stronger 8mm bolts that come with most wraparound hand guards. Did you do this or has Honda changed to 8mm bar ends on the stock bars?Thanks for your videos!

[@RoiaMoto]

Hey mate No changes from Honda. I used the original handlebar and the 6mm bolt that came with the kit. I’ve seen that this a common modification. Do you know the reference of the Barkbusters you have bought? Was it the mounting kit specific for the CRF300L? Cheers

[@donreed1133]

@@RoiaMoto I see, didn’t know some kits come with 6mm bolts. I first used Acerbis Tri-Fit which were all plastic. Recently I upgraded to Zeta handguards which are aluminum and have much more adjustable mounting capability than the Acerbis Tri-Fit. I also liked that the Zeta model I bought have a downward dip at the end of the handlebars that allow easier access to and from the handlebar grips. Both mounting kits I bought only contained 8mm bolts. It’s good to see companies like Barkbusters are recognizing the need for other size bolts! Thanks

[@erdincyazar.]

Zeta or barkbusters?

[@RoiaMoto]

The thing I don’t like with the Zeta is that they stick out much more from the handlebar. There is a bushing which is much longer than the Barkbusters. check some installation videos of the Zeta to compare. I can’t say anything bad about zeta but I prefer more the Barkbusters.

[@erdincyazar.]

Ok, thank you 😊

[@RoiaMoto]

My pleasure! Ride safe

[@guzzidelgado]

Guess i need a spacer ! 😞
