Product Information
Full details
Designed for Kawasaki Versys 650 owners who prioritize bike longevity, these SW Motech crash bars provide robust structural protection for the tank, fairing, and engine components. They are ideal for riders navigating both urban environments and light off-road terrain, offering high-quality steel construction that blends seamlessly with the bike's frame; however, users should note that they add slight width to the motorcycle, which may impact tight-gap filtering.

FAQs
Do I need special tools for installation?
You will need a basic set of hex keys, wrenches, and a torque wrench.
Can these bars be used with other accessories?
Yes, they are designed to be compatible with most factory accessories and commonly used light mounts.
Will these bars protect my engine casing?
While primarily for the tank and fairings, they provide substantial secondary protection for engine components in a low-side fall.
Does the powder coating require special cleaners?
No, standard motorcycle soap and water are sufficient for cleaning the bars.
Do these bars affect the warranty of my Versys 650?
Generally, using bolt-on accessories that do not require permanent modification should not void your warranty, but check with your local dealership.
Troubleshooting
Bolt holes do not line up perfectly during installation
Loosely install all bolts before tightening any single one to allow for minor alignment adjustments.
Vibrations detected after installation
Ensure all mounting hardware is torqued to the correct specification and check that no plastic panels are touching the bars.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The installation process is straightforward as it utilizes the existing mounting points on the Kawasaki Versys 650 frame. No drilling or permanent modification is required. For the best results, use a torque wrench to ensure all mounting bolts are tightened to the factory-specified settings. For maintenance, periodically inspect the bolts to ensure they remain tight, especially after the first 500 miles of riding. If the powder coating is scratched, touch it up with a matching paint to prevent surface rust from developing on the exposed steel.
