Frequently Asked Questions

My Triumph is not in the table: can I still mount it?
No. The kit is designed based on the handlebar geometry of the 5 listed models. Both the model and the year are necessary: a Triumph TIGER 1200 EXPLORER XCA from a different year may require a different kit.

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

What is the difference from single-point versions?
The manufacturer indicates the two-point system for impact protection, while the single-point system is only for wind and weather protection.
