    The BMW R1200GS has a powerful yet wide motor, and you want to protect every inch. Wrap that 1200cc gem with our 1 inch stainless crash bars. AltRider set the bar high on this product. Durable and well engineered, the AltRider crash bars are built with precision-manufactured mounts that fit directly into the existing motor mount. By utilizing the R 1200 GS’s robust frame mount and incorporating the existing frame hardware, AltRider designed a quality piece that will protect your motor. Unlike other crash bars, these do not use flanges or weak tabs and are not hung: they are actually mounted. Made with a shot peen satin finish means that even when the bike takes a spill, the stainless bars will never show signs of rust. These crash bars deflect the impact from the cylinders and engine case to the strongest parts of the frame. Unlike other manufacturers, our design provides plenty of clearance around the vulnerable left oil line. It also serves double-duty as a boot rest on long rides! Save yourself hassle and frustration – and the purchase of a $200 valve cover – by installing AltRider crash bars. An advantage to the AltRider design is the comprehensive protection provided to the valve cover. This is especially important on 2010 and newer models because contact to the valve cover can cause the gasket to dislodge resulting in massive oil loss. Take a moment to review the instructions. The reason we mention this here is to make you aware which mount points on the R 1200 GS have strength. You may also want to watch the installation video (click the thumbnail to the right). You’ll see everything that comes with your purchase, the tools you’ll need to complete the installation, and tips and tricks to make the process easier. *Works with 2008 and newer GSA but does touch bottom of tank on right side (see photo). R 1200 GS crash bars available in silver, black, white,red and triple black. R 1200 GS Upper crash bars available in silver, black, white, red and triple black. Fits 2003-2013 Stainless construction fights corrosion and rust Hand TIG welded crash bars are 1 inch diameter for additional strength Manufactured in America Refined satin peen finish T55 Torx driver provided with the hardware for installation Compatible with BMW OEM plastic and aluminum cylinder head guards Removal required for valve adjustment Fits with Akrapovic full exhaust shotgun style Note: Compatible with Remus header, approx. 1/2" of clearance on the right side Note: Not currently compatible with Two Brothers header.

    The AltRider Upper Crash Bars Assembly for the R 1200 GS are precisely engineered to protect your tank and mount your favorite lights up to. Constructed from 1" diameter stainless steel and with hand TIG welds, you will not find a more robust set of upper crash bars on the market. The upper bars assembly are available in silver, black,white, red and triple black to match your current set ofAltRider crash bars for the R 1200 GS. The design utilizes high compression clamps to mount to the lower Crash bar assembly and an integrated upper aluminum mounting bracket. The upper bracket has some addition functionality providing 6MM stud mounting options for lighting to the outside of the beak just below the blinker or directly underneath of the beak. We slotted the bracket to allow the storage of a tool roll or other items via large Velcro wraps to be hidden under the beak. Fits 2008 models and newer. *Works with 2008 and newer GSA but does touch bottom of tank on right side (see photo). Made from 1" diameter stainless steel Mounts to AltRider engine crash bars Multiple points available for mounting lights Able to remove air filter when installed Available in silver, black, white, red and triple black *Not compatible with non-AltRider crash bars for R 1200 GS *May require longer fastener if additional black beak trim installed. Will fit with OEM fasteners and GSA front beak

    I friggin love it!
  5. Anyone planning to head to Taste of Dakar this year? I think I saw Eric Hall mention he was going to keep his 100% good attendance award. A few of us PNW regulars are making the trip down again for our spring fling in the NV desert (6th year for us.) Probably spend a few days riding out of Pahrump or Beatty before the event starts Friday, then ride the event Saturday, and finish up Sunday (and hopefully part of Monday) out of Gold point. Love the endless riding out there. And got to love the Gold Point experience. Hopefully with the event being later in spring we will not be limited on routes by the snow this year.

    Riders of the KTM 1290 Super Adventure tend to push their limits on this insanely fast and suspension-latent adventure bike. When the bike inevitably goes down, one of the most vulnerable areas on this beast is the engine case. The AltRider Clutch Side Engine Case Cover is meant for riders who refuse to take a gamble on their machine. The OEM engine case on the 1290 is made from a thin-walled cast aluminum. This choice helps to save overall weight, but also creates a weak point on a vital piece of the engine. If you lay the KTM 1290 down on its right side, there is a real danger of the engine case becoming damaged by large debris or even from the brake lever tip bending into it, potentially bursting into the case. Compared to several competitor options made from molded plastic, we created an engine case cover made from a single piece of 3.2 mm aluminum. This exceptionally strong 6061-TG6 aluminum alloy has a tensile strength of at least 42,000 psi (300 MPa) and yield strength of at least 35,000 psi 241 MPa. Rubber backers spread the load of impact, as well as allow the cover to maintain a low profile. Flush stainless steel fasteners and a deburred product prevent scuffing up your boots and pants. The design of the case cover also incorporates the ingenuity of the AltRider Brake Lever Shield, preventing unwanted and unexpected early braking. The close design of the OEM brake lever creates early interference with the riders boot during braking. This is unique to the KTM 1290 as KTM worked hard to make the large displacement engine still feel narrow, which in turn provided little options for routing the rear brake lever. The lever arm extends into the rider boot area above the brake tip thus creating earlier-than-expected braking. An outward flange on the AltRider Engine Case Cover prevents accidental engagement of the brake arm while still providing a surface to properly hug the bike with your boot, all without interrupting any feel or ergonomics. AltRider motorcycle accessories are 100% designed and manufactured in the USA Protects engine case from damage caused by debris or rear brake lever Prevents accidental engagement of rear brake Easy installation with flush mount hardware Deburred to prevent snagged or caught clothing Made of 3.2 mm (1/8 in.) aluminum Available in black, silver, and orange

    Amazing machine. I've noticed its not as high quality as a BMW but its definitely built for my riding style. KTM has come short on my deal and hasn't activated KTM my ride, hill assist, quick shift, or heated grips. They don't know how to make these options work. It's been a month sense I bought the bike and I haven't got to fully use my bike yet.
  8. Just came back from my first maintenance on this monster. Surprising at how fast and smooth this motor is. She is in the beginnings of her transition to a real super adventurer: Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR, PP ergo seat, Altrider skid plate, radiator protection, rally pegs. It is strange going back and forth between both machines now— I think I have a favorite, not sure yet... now to plan my trips....

    The side stand switch is a serious vulnerability of the BMW R 1200 GS, allowing your ride to be disabled by a stray stick or other trail debris. Eliminate this weak point with a side stand switch guard from AltRider. The AltRider guard is constructed from 2 mm anodized aluminum. This material provides solid, lightweight protection for the side stand switch. The design allows for complete coverage while enhancing the overall look of your bike. Installation is simple with the provided hardware. Available in silver or black. NOTE: Fits bikes built September 2013 or later. Switch must be attached with screw, not c-clip.

    Made with 1/16 inch (1.5 mm) anodized aluminum, it replaces the OEM guard for a heftier solution. Louevers deflect kicked up debris, and we designed them to simultaneously direct air toward the radiator to keep it cool. The AltRider Radiator Guard attaches with OEM mount points and hardware, and is the only guard currently available that utilizes the lower middle mount to provide increased strength and protection. Plus, we made installation easy by making sure you wouldn’t have to remove the body panels.

    The AltRider Luggage System for the BMW R 1200 GS just might be the most versatile on the market - featuring five different mounting configurations, several attachment options for RotopaX fuel packs, interfaces for the Givi Monokey top case system (requires Givi top casemounting kit - sold separately), and four separate mount points for RAM ball mounts. This allows for easy mounting of an action camera in the perfect location without the need for additional complicated clamps. You can decide to ride with a lot of luggage or with a pillion, and the luggage rack will accommodate your needs at a moment’s notice. Although available separately, the two racks in the system work best together. The well thought out design features two racks which are CNC machined from 3/16 inch (4.75 mm) thick anodized aluminum, and are flanged to increase strength and create tie down points. Varied cutouts make it easy to strap, tie down, or hook bags or other items securely. The finishes are superb on this rack with all chamfered cutouts which results in smooth edges all around. The rear rack comes with a bracket – also made from 3/16 inch (4.75 mm) thick aluminum – which is used to mount in the low position and reinforce several mount/hook locations. When mounted in the lower position, the rear luggage rack has the added bonus of providing protection for the rear blinkers if the bike goes down. Installation of the pillion rack takes no time at all since it attaches and releases the same way the pillion seat does – with the key – so extra tools are unnecessary. There is no rack system on the market that provides all these configurations within the same product. Other manufacturers have simply made multiple parts, so the rider has to decide at the time of purchase how, what type, and how much luggage will be carried. With the AltRider solution, the rider can now configure the luggage system to the current need. GIVI Monokey top cases can be fitted with the GIVI Mounting Kit -- no need for the additional cost of an adapter plate. NOT COMPATIBLE WITH GIVI Trekker 52L Top Case. Made of 3/16 inch (4.75 mm) anodized aluminum Interfaces with Givi Monokey top case system (requires Givi Top case mounting kit) Interfaces with Rotopax Fuel system Interfaces with RAM mounts Available in Silver or Black Length: 26 inches Width: 16 inches Depth: 1.5 inches Weight: 5.5 lbs When installing BMW Vario Luggage, utilize 7 M8 washers to shim up underneath the rear luggage rack to avoid any interference when utilizing in the lower position. If running BMW Vario Luggage, please add a note at checkout for additional washers. This product can be fitted to the R 1200 GS Adventure only if the OEM stainless steel luggage rack is removed.

    Connect your Altrider Lower Crash Bars with your OEM upper crash bars.
  13. SEATTLE, WA – October 18, 2016 – (Motor Sports Newswire) – Motorcycle accessory manufacturer AltRider is now stocking their DualControl Brake System for the 2016-17 Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin. This innovative device offers riders better control over their rear brake lever in both seated and standing positions, making it an ideal upgrade for adventure riders looking to leave the pavement. AltRider’s DualControl Brake System provides quick access to the Africa Twin’s rear brake, no matter what position the rider is in. “Most ADV riders change their foot position as they switch between standing and sitting,” explained AltRider Founder Jeremy LeBreton. “If your foot is not situated properly on the rear brake pedal, you’re potentially doubling reaction time and stopping distance, which can be especially hazardous when riding off-road. The DualControl Brake System aims to correct that problem so riders can maintain control over the rear brake at all times.” AltRider’s patent-pending DualControl Brake System features two pieces to help enhance a rider’s control and reaction time: a riser and an enlarger plate. When a rider transitions from a seated position to a standing position, the change in angle tends to bring the front of the foot higher and further away from the rear brake lever. The riser was designed to provide quick access to the rear brake, no matter what position the rider is in. The enlarger plate was designed to combat the effects of off-road terrain on the rider’s footpeg position. This piece provides a greater surface area to minimize slips or misses in bumpy riding conditions. With both pieces installed, the DualControl Brake System helps Africa Twin riders improve reaction time and control over the rear brake lever. Features Include: Patent pending design 25.4mm tall riser is constructed of billet aluminum Billet aluminum enlarger plate is precision fit to the Africa Twin Replaceable grip pins provide traction in all conditions Riser and enlarger available separately or as a kit Installs easily with included stainless steel hardware Available in silver or black finish 100% designed and manufactured in the USA] The AltRider DualControl Brake System is 100% engineered and manufactured in the United States. The riser and enlarger are offered separately or as a kit, and are available in a silver or black finish. AltRider DualControl Brake Systems are available at www.AltRider.com and through authorized AltRider dealers. About AltRider.com From their vast catalog of American-made protection pieces and other accessories to their annual signature rides, AltRider is all about giving riders the freedom of adventure.

    The average person takes 0.5 to 1 full second to react to hazards. Traveling at 60 MPH, a rider will travel 25 to 50 feet before being able to properly react. Most OEM brake pedals have a single-positioned small footprint, yet most ADV riders substantially change foot positioning as they switch between standing and sitting. If your foot is not already situated correctly on the rear brake pedal, you are now potentially doubling reaction time and distance to make what could be a critical stop. This is why you see all motorcycle racers with 1 or 2 fingers on the front brake lever in photographs. AltRider has taken away this additional hazard with the patent pending DualControl Brake System. There are two parts to the AltRider DualControl Brake System that enhance control and reaction time; a riser and an enlarger plate. Riser When in a seated position, a rider’s bent knee naturally puts the angle of the foot pointed down 90 degrees from the lower leg, while a standing position creates a straighter leg and raises the angle of your foot to a more horizontal position. Using the OEM brake pedal, there is no way to keep the correct brake control position when both sitting and standing. With the AltRider enlarger and riser combined, there are now two levels in which to engage the rear brake, putting your foot in optimal position regardless of riding position. As every rider is different, there are two riser heights available depending on your riding style. For those needing additional customization, risers can also be swapped out. Enlarger The ever-changing terrain of off-road riding means your entire body is constantly moving and adjusting. The billet aluminum enlarger plate gives your foot a greater surface area to work with, affording you more control of the rear brake. The enlarger plate is precision fit to each bike model ensuring long-term stability. Optional and replaceable grip pins are provided for further customization. Both products are available separately or as a kit. Stainless steel bottom plate and hardware to endure the abrasions of off-road riding 100% designed and manufactured in the USA 25.4 mm riser height available Pins provided with enlarger for enhanced grip, extras included Enlarger and Riser available in black or silver Patent Pending Replaces KTM, Husqvarna, and Husaberg OEM part numbers: 60013051000, 54813951000, 81213951000, 54813051100 and 54813051000.

  17. Yet another great event! Dennis and I are on our way back now. All my pics and video are on separate cameras so you'll have to wait for all that. Main takeaways: New venue of Gold Point truly rocked. Wine Ridge RV resort was nice but wasn't an experience. Gold Point was an experience. Tracks dried out in just two weeks and were MUCH drier which means more deep sand. Great for a challenge but the scenic riders got more than they bargained for. Weather was perfect. Minimal injuries so that is good. What do others think?

    The AltRider sport touring soft panniers are designed for paved road riding only. For off-road riding conditions, check out our other line of soft panniers here. With approximately 125 liters of storage space, AltRider Hemisphere sport touring soft panniers are perfect for a weekend getaway or cross-country trek. Designed for larger adventure and sport touring motorcycles, the Hemisphere soft panniers are 100% waterproof and dust-proof when used correctly. Custom aluminum tension hooks, along with ballistic webbing and metal cam lock buckles, create a fully secure attachment to any bike. This mounting system also allows you to quickly and easily remove the luggage from the bike. A removable top kit offers 28 liters of storage space, and is fastened with 2 metal cam-lock buckles and 1” webbing. The rugged design of the custom cam-lock buckles won’t allow any movement of the straps, regardless of riding conditions. The cam-lock strap system can also be used to secure a multitude of other items, including RotopaX fuel packs. Both side compartments of the Hemisphere soft panniers are designed to keep the contents dry in the most extreme riding conditions. Custom removable 34 liter dry bags with a roll top closure fit inside a compartment with an additional roll-top closure -- creating a double barrier that is impervious to the elements. The dry bags are perfect for your items that need to stay completely dry -- clothes, sleeping bags, electronics, etc. Because these items are lightweight, they can be stored high on the bike without sacrificing handling. Included compression straps keep the load close to the bike when the road gets rough. The soft panniers also feature lower compartments with removable 15 liter dry bags for storing heavier essentials -- tools, camp stoves or other hefty items. Storing these heavier items closer to the ground maintains the handling of the motorcycle, while protecting your lighter items from accidental damage. The included dry bags are constructed from waterproof and dust-proof vinyl coated polyester. Seams are fully-taped and sewn using military spec stitching. Dry bag inserts feature a roll top closure that is secured with burly 1.5” Delrin buckles -- fully isolating the contents from the elements, and allowing easy opening and closing even with gloves on. Reflective logos on either side of the bag improve visibility and safety in low-light and nighttime riding conditions. Please Note: Hemisphere Soft Panniers feature a unique design based on which side of the motorcycle your exhaust is located. Left and right side exhausts are asymmetrical and will have a slightly smaller pannier on the exhaust side. Bikes that feature exhaust in the center or on both sides will have panniers of equal size. These layouts are intended to prevent the panniers from contacting the exhaust. Hemisphere soft panniers are designed to work with an existing ‘hoop style’ side rack. Check with your OEM for available options.

  19. I have been using AltRider Hemisphere Soft Panniers for 3 months now and it is time for a quick review. I have always been a fan of soft luggage for off road use for the simple facts that it holds gear more securely on rough roads and is more forgiving and less painful when its laying on top of me when I run out of talent. My first impression of the Hemisphere Soft Panniers was that they were a very simple design. They don't have a dozen straps dangling from all sides of the luggage which is great when loading and unloading my gear. One requirement for the Hemisphere Soft Panniers is a hard rack, so I decided to install a Tusk Rack which worked perfectly with the Hemisphere Soft Panniers. The hook and loop attachment is about as simple and easy as it gets to attach the bags to the rack. The second point of attachment is from the front of the panniers to the foot pegs. The third point of attachment is to the back of the tail rack. These three points of attachment hold the bags securely and at no point during my riding did I feel things shifting or bouncing around on the bike. The roll top waterproof main compartments, separate, lower rear loading compartments, and the included top mount dry bag provide plenty of room to carry all of my camp gear on multi day adventures and compresses down small enough to hold less gear for day trips. Here is a photo of the left side with the removable dry bag. The dry bag is seam taped and kept all of my gear dry during my last trip to Death Valley. I decided to ride Death Valley on what was the wettest weekend of the year. Warm Springs in the Rain The two lower compartments include roll top dry bags to carry heavier items low for a better center of gravity. I used the right side for tools and used the left side for water and camera gear. This is a photo of the included dry bag for the top of the rack. Many of my rides are well over 200 miles between gas stations and I carry a RotoPax. I was concerned that the RotoPax would not work and was pleasantly surprised to see that the RotoPax was held securely with one of the provided tie downs. No shifting at all! There are two tie downs included to securely hold the dry bag or any other gear you will want to carry. One issue with the Hemisphere Soft Panniers is that the design covers the pillion/passenger area including the passengers handles. I would guess that half of my rides are spent with my wife, Brandy, on the back of my bike so I had to make one modification and add handles to the luggage. I don't necessarily want to recommend this to other 2Up riders, however it worked out great for Brandy and my riding style. Brandy wraps her arms around my waist in all technical or fast sections of trail and she uses the handles while on the highway or flat non technical sections of road and trail. I used four screw links and two "dog bones" that are used for rock climbing quick draws to build the handles. Please click on this link to be directed to AltRiders website for all the technical specifications and AltRider videos on the Hemispere Soft Panniers: I hope that you enjoyed my review! Brandy and Jesse "GeoMoto" Kimball are avid adventure riders and organize the Flying Monkey Adventure Rally every October in Southern Utah.
