Frequently asked questions

My Honda is not in the table: can I still mount it?
No. The kit is designed for the handlebar geometry of the 3 listed models. Both the model and year are necessary: a Honda CB500X from a different year may require a different kit.

Are the protective plastics included?
No. Barkbusters sells the structure and plastics separately: this kit only includes the aluminum structure with hardware. JET, VPS, STORM, and CARBON plastics are ordered separately and are interchangeable.

What is the difference compared to single-point versions?
The two-point system is recommended by the manufacturer for impact protection, while the single-point system is only for wind and weather protection.
