Description Barkbusters BHG-071 handguard mounting kit for Triumph Tiger 1200 Explorer from 2018

The BHG-071 is the mounting frame that Barkbusters designed for the handlebars of the Triumph Tiger 1200 Explorer from 2018 onward, in all five trim levels. Heat-treated aluminum bars, clamps, and hardware: the handguard remains secured at two points, at the handlebar end and on the straight section.

Frame and plastics are two separate items

The protective plastics are not included in this package. The frame is specific to the motorcycle, while the plastics are selected separately and remain interchangeable on the same base.

  • JET-003 — compact profile, enduro and mixed use.
  • VPS-203 — adjustable deflector, adventure and touring.
  • STM-003 — extended coverage, road riding and winter travel.
  • BCF-003 — carbon fiber.

Tiger 1200: check the year carefully

It is the model with the most different codes in the entire Barkbusters catalog, because Triumph changed the handlebars more than once.

Why buy it from Endurrad

Free shipping in Italy on orders over €100 and in Europe on orders over €250, returns within 14 days, a 1-year warranty, and support in Italian. If you are not sure which generation your Tiger is, send us the year and trim level before ordering.

Why choose it
  • Due punti di fissaggio: la configurazione che il produttore indica per la protezione dagli impatti.
  • Cinque allestimenti coperti: XCA, XCX, XR, XRT e XRX condividono lo stesso manubrio.
  • Alluminio trattato termicamente: la barra lavora davanti alla leva, su una moto che pesa.
  • Quattro serie di plastiche sulla stessa base: si cambia protezione o colore senza ricomprare la struttura.
Who is it recommended for

A chi ha una Tiger 1200 Explorer dal 2018 e la usa per viaggiare. Su una moto di questa massa una caduta da fermo è facile e costosa: il doppio punto di fissaggio serve esattamente a quello.

Attenzione all'anno: se la tua Tiger 1200 è del 2022 o più recente, appartiene alla generazione successiva e usa un altro codice.

Assembly and documents

Le istruzioni ufficiali Barkbusters sono fornite nella confezione. La sequenza è quella comune ai kit a due punti.

  1. Rimuovi il paramano originale, se presente, e l'attacco all'estremità del manubrio.
  2. Presenta il morsetto sulla sezione dritta del manubrio senza serrare a fondo.
  3. Fissa la barra all'estremità del manubrio e al connettore del morsetto, lasciando tutto lasco.
  4. Porta la barra in posizione orizzontale vista di lato e serra nell'ordine indicato dalle istruzioni, alle coppie dichiarate.
  5. Monta le plastiche che hai scelto, lascia circa 3 mm fra manopola del gas e paramano e verifica gas, freno, frizione, interruttore di arresto e sterzata da fondo a fondo. Ricontrolla il serraggio dopo i primi 50 km.

Il produttore considera il montaggio dei paramani un intervento rilevante per la sicurezza: se non hai dimestichezza, affidalo a un tecnico.

Manufacturer

Barkbusters è un marchio australiano di Rideworx Pty Ltd, con sede nel Nuovo Galles del Sud. Produce paramani per moto da oltre trent'anni e dichiara le compatibilità modello per modello e anno per anno, sulla moto in configurazione originale di fabbrica.

La gamma è costruita su un principio semplice: struttura di montaggio e plastiche di protezione sono due articoli separati e combinabili fra loro.
