Pics of Roadster with Black Crash Bars on Front/Back?

[germ79]

I'm considering putting on some crash bars, but I don't want to take too much away from the look. I think if they are black it won't stand out too much? I'd love to see pics of what it looks like on the front/back if you have them!

Also, where can you get these things nowadays?!?

Thanks, guys!

Thanks for that! Which bars are those?

 

[Claviger]

They're the original Triumph ones, before they improved the strength so they are more a foot rest than any sort of protection. After the fix on the mounting point, they look basically the same, but are stronger. Visually, the German made ones, I think 1.5" diameter, look much much better imho.

Does anyone actually have these?

Those will bend like clay. Look at the top mount point, just like stock original Triumph parts (like mine). The newer design has a cast round elbow that is much stronger.

I have the later triumph on one & German on other. The 3rd will have later one's too when on the road.
The German are more chunkier & stronger I would say

Yep, I have posted them a few times, they come with photos and it takes a while to figure without!
These same German design (and made?) Fehling bars are sold world wide by different re-sellers and brand names.
Fehling list them on their own Fehling parts listings for Triumph Rocket IIIs.
US Outlaw was a German or Austrian one with the instructions I posted.
Motea UK sell Black and Chrome versions as Craftride.
In Australia they are sold by Performance Triumph in Victoria.
I have had a couple of sets and have one on now. They do the job and my first pair one side needs a simple weld to replace a broken bracket from a dirt road off a few years ago.
If you search those names in Boid in the forums with my name as poster, you should discover them quick, if not holler and I'll re-post.

Found this Engine Axle Bolt in a bind during crash bar install

If ya like BEEFY, the 'ducks gut's' are the now custom order only 2" 50mm stainless bars from another European who bought the rights from the previous manufacturer.
They had some great optional front connecting SS air dams/ rock chuckers with or without laser cutout of Triumph / Rocket III etc optional cutouts.
2015 Prices below, Optional Black, + 150,--Euro

They would go great with my set of Aussie made Au$1000 Burleigh 2" stainless pull back handle bars but cost even more..... like Au$1500 + a few years ago!

I'll dig up the posts!

50mm (2") crash bars from Germany installed! WOW! These are amazing...

Facebook has a group Rocket 3 parts for sale that is mostly European sellers that a good place to go. I year ago you could have found them new. Dang. Haha- a year too late. Do you happen to have a link to that group?
