I'd have the pink because all my Snap On tools at work that requires plastic handles were ordered pink & I've still got them after 45yrs, I mean who's going to nick yer pink screwdriver etc. Lovely kit you sell Steve.

[@thatguy7085]

Easier to see a pink tool… should be required for aircraft work.

[@OneManTrail]

Ordered mine last week for my GSA. The quality on the black powdercoat is very good. I see no flaws on the surface. Lightning fast shipping. I don’t know how you got it to Arizona in one day.

[@billyray3761]

The BMW dealers in the US know Steve. (Thanks to me!) He is making a tremendous impact.

[@ABIKETHING]

Thank you Billy

[@papadougpapadougsadventures]

Please do a version without the white Barkbuster logo

[@ABIKETHING]

? We have it in black too. Did you not watch the whole video?

[@papadougpapadougsadventures]

@@ABIKETHING I mainly do comments to help you with the KZbin algorithm and a thumbs up of course.

[@rayfriedman6107]

Great idea, the black powder coat--wish I would have thought of it! Now--if only you had a Las Vegas stockist...

[@ABIKETHING]

We ship there and shipping to USA is fast . You guys don’t pay any tax either which makes no sense but that’s what I’m seeing when we ship to USA

[@OneManTrail]

Don’t hesitate Ray. I ordered from him on Thursday and they were on my bike on Friday. UK to Arizona! He’s faster than all my Stateside places.

[@rayfriedman6107]

@@OneManTrail Wow--good to hear! Now if I could only get Steve to fly out here and install some Denalis...

[@mtscott]

Noice. Barkbusters also do a side rail protector that finishes them off nice and protects the side rails when you drop the bike. You showed them at 2:18.

[@ABIKETHING]

Thanks. I also mention the skid plates a little bit further on too.

[@TwoFourCharlie007]

Look cool Steve

[@larrydoyle907]

Will have to order a set for my gsa

[@fuad89n]

i was in accident last year in my r1250gs.. my bike was totalled but barkbuster save my hand only got scratches on the bark buster..i transfer the barkbuster to my new bike.. barkbuster do really works

[@ABIKETHING]

Great testimonial

[@duexie]

do you have these to fit ktm 1290 superadventure s 2022?

[@dumplingz7]

are these compatible with the multistrada?

[@richardmannings8776]

any chance of a stealth set of Barkbusters ie black on black with no white branding. would certainly buy this. The overt branding is off putting.

[@jerome27100]

Awesome, they look so much better! How do the VPS guards compare to the original ones size-wise? Do you loose any wind protection? I noticed there's a small notch halfway.

[@ABIKETHING]

I think the wind protection is similar but more on the outside

[@colinclugston4757]

Was checking this out on your web site , but it’s telling me it isn’t secure. Never had that problem before

[@ABIKETHING]

Hi, yes I know, it will pass. We underwent a server migration on Monday that went a bit sideways. I had to make a decision to either wait (with a holding page saying we’re still in business but we can’t take orders for several days) or make the DNS changes in a more of a deliberate way which will cause about 24 hours of isolated interruptions (which you have experienced). Neither option was ideal but I went for the latter option so we’d be back up and running quickly. I’ve been told there’s still going to be some messages out there for a further 24 hours but we haven’t seen any ourselves today.

[@streetglidesteve7315]

I like it but defeats the purpose since you left the large ugly white barkbuster label on I have a Triple black GS Does the label peel off ?

[@ABIKETHING]

Look at the black on black and or the carbon ones

[@quatron---]

So, is there a kit that fits on the '21 KTM Super Adventure S that wont destory the display when u drop the bike?

[@ABIKETHING]

I’m waiting to find out if the same one that fits the 2020 model will fit the 2021 model. It’s not listed on barkbusters website

[@kenny4k]

I’ve got the denali t3 on my stock guards- is there anyway to attach to these? Or alternative places to attach

[@ABIKETHING]

Yes you can mount them flush on them

[@MrPeterDWatson]

Your "deck" gag is a New Zealand accent joke! Oh, well......

[@rayfriedman6107]

AHHHH! Can't find the video where you did an instal in Thailand! Can you reply with the link?

@@ABIKETHING Appreciate that Steve. Nice installation as usual. I was looking for spot where you recommend a small power screwdriver. Found it (the Ozito) but discovered they don't appear to sell them in the states. No problem, I found several similar versions. Thanks again!

[@marcparks5700]

Steve, have you got any in for the Pan America

[@ABIKETHING]

Not yet. They’ll be coming though

[@howlneddy4910]

FYI... N.Zer's say "Dick" as Deck. In OZ we say "Deck" not Dick. Like they say Sex instead of Six...😅🤣😅🤣Just say'n.

[@markdean9679]

Steve will the barkbusters fit an R1250GS with the evotech bar end weights fitted. Also what screen is that on your GS I want a black screen for my 1250GS. Thanks

[@ABIKETHING]

Not sure but if you managed to put your factory hand guards back on with the evo weights then yes I’d say they’ll fit just fine. The tinkered screen on my gsa is a bmw tinted rally screen

[@sunnycloudy1337]

how do you attach it to the handlebar without destroying the powder coat on said handlebar? I've had them barkbusters on my old bike and scratched my handlebar quite badly because it didn't come with any rubber grommets in the kit.

[@ABIKETHING]

You’ve lost me. I’ve fitted a few now and I can’t see any damage. Or are you referring to scratching under the head of the bolt? A bit that can’t be seen as the bolt is covering it?

[@sunnycloudy1337]

@@ABIKETHING do they come with rubber grommets or do they rub metal on metal, handbar to barkbuster frame?

[@AndySlade1]

Can’t understand why you have had these powder coated rather than anodised?

[@ABIKETHING]

Mainly due to the contractors we have available to us who have the right attitude but also I personally like the powder coated finish. It’s still very durable and a little more affordable than costs involved with anodising. Maybe we’ll move across to anodising in the future if the demand is there but we’ve sold a fair amount already and there’s only 2 people who have mentioned anodising so far.

[@stevecsongvay3455]

You have the Australian accent confused with the Kiwi accent!

[@ABIKETHING]

Sorry Steve. I’m useless at accents.

[@stevecsongvay3455]

You are forgiven! And thank you again for the Weiser lights. They work beautifully and were straight forward to install. Also 3 days from ordering to receiving in Melbourne! Howe awesome.

[@stevecsongvay3455]

sorry! typo - how

[@joshnolan8826]

Be sure to drop me an email when you've got some for my KTM! Orange on the plastic if possible, please and thankyou!

[@ABIKETHING]

We’re waiting to find out if the same backbone for the older 1290 will fit the newer 1290. Feel free to drop in and try. I should have an answer this week too

[@joshnolan8826]

@@ABIKETHING Im away now for 3 months but will be sure to drop by when Im back in the summer

[@Barmarcbiker]

They are a great idea and it looks like the powder coating really sets them off. What puts me off is the large letters of the wording. This puts me off purchasing a set. Just wish their logo was a little more discreet. Shame really.

[@ABIKETHING]

I use to feel the same but then I changed my mind when I realised how cool they were. Admittedly a bit of a ‘lead like a lamb’ but when you see the guys who can ride these machines use barkbusters it makes you want to have what they have.

[@Andy-ft6yg]

I’m sure they do the job but look cheap compared to the rest of the work on such a beautiful bike, personally I think it’s spoiled the look.

[@ABIKETHING]

Get yourself on an off road experience and you may think differently. Barkbusters is used by bmw off road training as it’s just not cool to leave the standard ones on them.

[@mollyfilms]

Perhaps you should stop making videos and sort out your postal arrangements? Rude emails don’t make long customer relationships. You need to work on your customers and not blame them for your shortcomings.

Boring!!!!
