Quick update. Zeiger got them to the US in 8 days but the package has been sitting waiting on customs going on 2 weeks now...not sure if thats a covid thing or what the hold up is. DHL is not very helpful when it comes to international tracking. Will let you guys know when/if they get delivered.
2020 DCT Crash Bars recommendation?

Wow, 75 mph going down is not a small experience.
You ain’t kidding. Thrashed my Klim gear, no road rash, just 2 broken ribs

Read through that too quickly the first time....thought it said "you ain't skidding". Found it humorous. Sorry, ornery military sense of funny. I'll stop now.

While we await the delivery of your bars, do you mind if I ask what price you offered/they accepted?
They were around $450 for uppers and lowers. $100 shipping. They arrived a couple days ago and I put them on yesterday. They look great solid construction and they mount to the frame. Well worth the $550 compared to what is out there for over a thousand.

Excellent news, congrats on receiving the product. Looks sharp! So, did you have to remove the exhaust to mount them up? Engine skid plate?
Yes, skid plate , right foot peg and the brake lever had to come off. The exhaust had to be lowered so a bolt could go through the frame in between the 2 headers. It didn't come with directions so it was like a fun 3D puzzle. I haven't crash tested them but they seem like they would hold up.

Awesome, thank you for the details. When I first saw the red variant for sale I was all over it like a schoolboy crush. After seeing how sharp your bike looks with the black, I'm really giving some thought to going that route. Thanks for all the info.
