Everything you need to know before ordering
Compatibility, included items, installation, and documents: below is every detail verified against the official Barkbusters documentation.
The BHG-062 is the Barkbusters mounting kit designed around the handlebar geometry of the Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin from 2016, the Africa Twin Adventure Sports from 2018, and the X-ADV 750 from 2017 to 2020. It is the aluminum structure that supports the handguards: it protects your hands, levers, and controls from branches, gravel, and low-speed falls, and remains on the bike even when you change the plastics.
It fits both the version with a DCT gearbox and the manual version: the manufacturer lists them together. And as with the entire range, the structure and protective plastics are two separate products: here you are purchasing the structure only, with hardware and handlebar weights.
Key features
- Two-point mounting — anchored at the handlebar end plus a clamp on the straight section. This is the configuration the manufacturer specifies for impact protection.
- Heat-treated aluminum bar, with a wraparound design and natural aluminum finish.
- Handlebar weights included — no need to buy them separately.
- DCT and manual gearbox under the same code.
- Interchangeable plastics — compatible with JET, VPS, STORM, and CARBON, each sold separately.
- Made in Australia by Rideworx Pty Ltd.
Protection and use
The Africa Twin is a motorcycle you take where the road ends, and that is where your hands are most exposed: branches, gravel thrown up by the rider ahead, and the stationary fall that happens to everyone when a foot slips while crossing a stream. The two-point mounting is what Barkbusters designed specifically for this purpose: the bar forms a cage around the hand and transfers the impact to the structure instead of the lever. On a touring motorcycle, it is not just an aesthetic detail; it is the difference between continuing your journey and looking for a workshop. The single-point configuration, the other option in the range, is specified by the manufacturer only for protection from wind and weather.
Materials and construction
Heat-treated aluminum structure, a process the manufacturer uses to increase strength and impact absorption. The design is wraparound: it starts at the straight section of the handlebar, curves around the hand, and closes at the end. The clamp is shaped to fit between the cables and lines of the CRF1000L, which is why a bike-specific kit fits where a universal one would not.
Compatibility

Compatibility declared by Barkbusters for motorcycles in original factory configuration. Aftermarket handlebars may have different diameters and thicknesses: mounting must be checked before purchase. Unsure about your model? Contact us, specifying the model and year.
Pay attention to the number. This is the code for the CRF1000L. For the CRF1100L Africa Twin, from 2020 onward, the manufacturer specifies code BHG-082.
Installation
Mounts on the original handlebar, with no drilling or modifications to the motorcycle. The stock bar ends must be removed because the structure anchors directly to the handlebar end, and the ones supplied in the kit are used in their place.
Before fully tightening, check that the throttle, front brake, clutch, and engine stop switch operate freely, and that the steering turns from lock to lock without interference. Check the tightening again after the first 50 km. The complete sequence and warnings are provided in the official instructions INS-BHG-062-NP, attached to this product page in the Manufacturer Documents section.
What you will find in the package
- Two heat-treated aluminum bars
- Clamps for the straight section of the handlebar
- Complete mounting hardware
- Handlebar weights
What is NOT included
- Protective plastics. They must be selected and ordered separately from the JET, VPS, STORM, and CARBON series. EGO plastics are not compatible with this structure.
- Barkbusters LED lights. In addition to being a separate product, the manufacturer states that the LED-001 lights are not compatible with the Honda CRF1000L and CRF1100L Africa Twin.
Why choose Barkbusters
Barkbusters is a Rideworx Pty Ltd brand, an Australian company that has designed and manufactured motorcycle handguards since 1984. The range is built around a precise concept: the structure is motorcycle-specific, while the plastics are universal within the system. The photos on this page show this clearly — they all feature the same kit with three different protection series. You buy the right structure once, then choose the protection you need and change it when the way you use the motorcycle changes.
Why buy it from Endurrad
Endurrad offers accessories for touring, adventure, and enduro motorcycles: compatibility checked against the manufacturer's documentation, official instructions attached to the product page, and assistance before purchase if your model is unclear. Free shipping in Italy over €100 and in Europe over €250, returns within 14 days, 1-year warranty. See the full Barkbusters range.

Auxiliary spotlight mounts: where additional spotlights are actually installed
Universal collars hold by friction, and friction degrades: after a few hundred kilometers, the beam points elsewhere. The three possible positions, the standard diameter, and the thumb-operated control.

The engine guard does its job only once—and that’s when it gets scratched. Crash bars as sacrificial parts, and why the tube diameter determines everything you can mount on them.
