AltRider Siver Crash Bar on Blue 2014 Tenere - Install Tips Too

[kena48]

Quality is FANTASTIC! I found the installation very difficult by myself, and I’m an airplane mechanic. Like the video says, get someone to hold one side in-place for you. Very easy to scratch your pipes doing it solo. Also, as someone mentioned, nice long punch set to keep one side in place is a great help to line up holes. Nice long well fitting, as to not damage the nutplates.

Cannot say enough about the quality of this system and the staff and shipping from Revzilla.

I made a separate post about mounting Highway Pegs to these - but will include a pic here too. Pegs - http://www.yamahasupertenere.com/index.php?topic=16288.0

And you CAN get the left side panel off pretty easy. Be careful when disconnecting the battery - the wrench will spark when it comes in contact with the crash bars. I found this out by experience.

Always disconnect the negative terminal first and connect it last. If you do that, you will have no sparks if you touch the screwdriver or wrench to the crash bars while touching the positive terminal.
