Description LOBOO CHG37 Crash Bar for Honda Forza 350 / NSS350 from 2021 | 304 stainless steel, Ø 22 mm, with footrests and spotlight brackets

The CHG37 is LOBOO’s crash bar for the Honda Forza 350, made of 304 stainless steel with a Ø 22 mm tube and a 2 mm wall thickness. It keeps the scooter raised in a stationary fall or a tip-over, so the bars—not the fairings—make contact, which are the most expensive damage item on a maxi-scooter.

It is more than just protection. The package includes four aluminum footrests with non-slip rubber inserts, providing a second leg position on long rides, and two auxiliary light brackets, one on each side: the lights must be purchased separately, but the supports are included.

Compatibility stated in the installation manual and by the Italian distributor: Honda Forza 350 from 2021 onward. The same motorcycle is also marketed under the name NSS350, so if you searched for that name, you are in the right place: it is the same scooter and the same kit.

It is available in two finishes, sandblasted and electro-oxidized silver or electrostatically painted black, identical in material, dimensions, and mounting points. Installation takes place in six steps, identical on both sides, using the existing mounting points: no drilling and no modifications to the original structure. If you choose not to install the auxiliary light brackets, the manual includes a specific diagram for that configuration.

A crash bar reduces damage from a side impact or a stationary fall, but it does not eliminate it: LOBOO does not publish load tests for this code, so we do not state any resistance thresholds. Endurrad is a retailer, not the manufacturer.

Why choose it
  • Protects fairings:Keeps the scooter raised in case of a stationary fall or side stand.
  • Most frequent damage:On a daily-use vehicle parked on the street, this is the typical scenario.
  • Black finish:Integrated with the scooter's aesthetics.
  • Dedicated to the model:Honda Forza 350, also known as NSS350, from 2021.
Who is it recommended for

It's useful if with your Forza 350:

  • You park on the street, where bumps and side rests are frequent
  • You use the scooter every day and want to limit the risk of damage to the fairings
  • You want to preserve the resale value of the vehicle

Documented compatibility: Honda Forza 350 from 2021, also marketed as NSS350.

Documents and manufacturer

Assembly and Notes

  • Check the fasteners after the first 100-200 km and periodically thereafter.
  • After an impact, verify that the bar is not deformed and does not rest on fairings or components.
  • This is not an approved safety device and does not replace careful driving.
  • Verify model and year before purchase.

How does it work, in detail?

Forza 350 and NSS350: are they the same motorcycle?

Forza 350 and NSS350: are they the same motorcycle?

NSS350 is Honda’s technical designation for the scooter sold as the Forza 350. The manual and distributor specify a single production period, starting in 2021, and a single kit. Whether you searched using one name or the other, you reached the same product, and that is correct.

Count the pieces before opening the box

Count the pieces before opening the box

Seventeen items on the parts list: two bars, two plates, four aluminum footrests, two brackets for the spotlights, six rubber inserts, bushings, a complete set of screws and hardware, and a service key. Everything you need is in the box, except the spotlights.

It has the scooter instead of the fairings

It has the scooter instead of the fairings

On a Forza 350, the side panels are large and expensive, and in a stationary tip-over or when the bike is leaned against something while parking, they make contact first. The bars extend farther out than the fairing and take the impact instead: this is the most common damage scenario for a daily-use vehicle.

Four footboards, two per side

Four footboards, two per side

The footrests are made of aluminum with non-slip rubber inserts and are included in the kit; they are not an accessory to add. They allow you to change position during long journeys, when the platform keeps your legs at the same angle.

304 stainless steel, not painted steel

304 stainless steel, not painted steel

The bar is made of 304 stainless steel, with a Ø 22 mm tube and a 2 mm wall thickness. It is the choice that withstands corrosion on a scooter parked outdoors all year round: even if the surface gets scratched, there is no paint underneath acting as the sole barrier.

The brackets for the spotlights are already included in the kit

The brackets for the spotlights are already included in the kit

Two dedicated brackets, one per side, so there are no universal clamps tightly fastened around the tube. The spotlights and wiring are purchased separately: the ones shown in the photos are only there to show the position, and LOBOO states this on the images themselves.

Six steps, without drilling

Six steps, without drilling

The manual describes six identical steps on both sides, using the existing mounting points. Specified torque for each screw: 12 N·m for the M6 screws and 20 N·m for the M8 screws. If you choose not to install the brackets for the spotlights, there is a dedicated diagram for that configuration.

Brushed silver or matte black

Brushed silver or matte black

CHG37SL is sandblasted and electropolished stainless steel, which remains visible and contrasts with the Forza’s dark fairings. CHG37BK is powder-coated and blends in with the black plastics. The material, dimensions, mounts, and package contents are identical.

See how much it covers from the front

See how much it covers from the front

From the front, the purpose of the kit becomes clear: the bars extend beyond the fairing profile and define the point of contact in the event of a fall. This view also shows how far they protrude, which is useful when parking in tight spaces.

What it doesn't do

What it doesn't do

It is not an approved safety device and does not replace protective clothing. It reduces the damage from a side impact or a stationary fall; it does not eliminate it, and LOBOO does not publish load tests for this product code: you will not find resistance thresholds here because none have been declared. Weight and dimensions are not stated by any source.

FAQs

For more information, please see our FAQ.

Which Honda does the CHG37 fit?

Honda Forza 350 from 2021 onward: both the installation manual and the Italian distributor state this. The same motorcycle is also sold under the model designation NSS350, so if you searched for that name, you’re in the right place: it’s the same scooter and the same kit, not two different products.

Are the Forza 350 and NSS350 the same motorcycle?

Yes. NSS350 is Honda’s technical designation for the scooter marketed as the Forza 350: same vehicle, same frame, same protection kit. You’ll find both names in documents and listings, but there aren’t two versions of the CHG37.

What will I find in the package?

The parts list in the manual contains 17 items: the left and right bars, two plates, four aluminum footrests, two brackets for auxiliary lights, six non-slip rubber inserts, bushings, all the hardware with washers and self-locking nuts, and a service wrench.

Auxiliary lights and wiring are not included; the brackets for mounting them are.

Do I need to drill or modify the scooter?

No. The kit attaches to the existing mounting points in six identical steps on both sides, without drilling or modifying the original structure. Once removed, the Forza returns to its stock condition.

What torque should the screws be tightened to?

The manual specifies them all: 12 N·m for the M6×20 and M6×35, and 20 N·m for the M8×30 and M8×45. The manufacturer asks you not to fully tighten them immediately, but to position the entire kit first and then tighten them in sequence. Check them again after the first few miles and periodically thereafter.

Are the footboards included?

Yes, four, two per side. They are made of aluminum with non-slip rubber inserts and are used to change position on long stretches, where the Forza’s floorboard keeps your legs at the same angle. The manual does not specify a maximum load, so we do not publish one.

Can I mount spotlights on it?

Yes, and the brackets are already included in the kit: two dedicated mounts, one for each side. There is no need for universal clamps to tighten around the tube. The spotlights and wiring must be purchased separately: they appear in the product photos only to show their position, as LOBOO itself states in the images.

If you decide not to install them, that is not a problem: the manual includes a dedicated diagram for the configuration without spotlight brackets.

Does anything differ between black and silver besides the color?

No. CHG37BK and CHG37SL share the same material, tube diameter, connections, and package contents. The silver finish is created by sandblasting and electrolysis, leaving the stainless steel exposed; the black finish comes from electrostatic painting. The choice is purely aesthetic.

Can I attach inflatable crash bar bags to it?

No. LOBOO inflatable crash bar bags are designed for Ø 25 mm bars, while the CHG37 uses a Ø 22 mm tube, so the attachment will not hold. We prefer to say so here rather than deal with a return.

How much does it weigh, and how wide is it?

We don’t know, and we prefer to say so. Neither the manual nor the LOBOO product page states the weight or overall dimensions of the assembled kit, so we don’t publish estimates. If you need the measurement for a tight garage box or motorcycle parking space, write to us and we’ll measure one from stock.

Do I need to replace it after a fall?

Check it: make sure the bars are not deformed or resting against fairings or components, and recheck that all screws are tight. LOBOO does not publish load tests for this part number, so there is no stated threshold beyond which the part must be replaced; if in doubt, have it assessed by a workshop.

How do warranty, shipping, and returns work?

24-month legal guarantee of conformity for consumers, and we handle the claim with the manufacturer for you. Tracked shipping is free for orders over €100 in Italy and €250 in Europe. You have 14 days from receiving the last item in your order to return it, provided the product is intact and in its original packaging.
