- How to Install Givi crash bars on a Suzuki V-strom 1000. This is the first step to getting Timmy's adventure motorcycle off road ready. We have more things we want to do like modifying the front fender and mounting up some Motoz tires which will be coming soon. (For the record you don't have to drill these crash bars like we did if you have the stock motor mount bolt.)

If you have the stock motor mount mount bolt you don't have to drill the bars. We're planning on doing a few more things to this bike and those videos will be coming in the future.
New crash bars for Timmy!
Hell yeah!! 👊
Nice guys. Those bars look like they offer great protection for the fairings! - Frank
Thanks. Hopefully they do their job
@@TheBeardedGrump If not I KNOW you two will redo the front fairings and keep going! - Frank
@@OneOldManRiding he definitely doesn't want that to happen on this bike 😂
FRANK !!!
Came out great !!!! Good job - this will help a lot of people !!!!!!
Thanks OBI! Hopefully it will help someone.
That’s one of the first things I bought for my Tenere was crash bars. Didn’t even ride it till I installed them.
They are definitely a must add part. 👊
I like the name "Venom" for Timmy's black Suzuki. I think I'm going to name my black Suzuki "Vader". Will that make me the nemesis of Obi-Wan? I hope not.
It seemed fitting with the color and since he got bit by a snake 😂. You and OBI might have to buy light sabers 😁😂
ROB !!!!
Looking good.
Jobs not done right until the grinder comes out!
Thanks! It seems that way. Especially for us here lately 😁👊
Time to crash now! Just no more broken bones this time!
JAY !!!!
Hopefully no hard crashes on this bike. He's got to keep this one fresh
Radiator looks unprotected! 😳
That's coming next
@@TheBeardedGrump the radiator on my super Tenere is mounted sideways behind the faring with an electric fan.🔨💩
@@tracey38999 they are definitely a little more exposed on a V-strom. I made my radiator guard and we're going to do the same for Timmy's
Great insrall video! Any protection increase is a good thing. The new parts look great.
Thanks Doc! Hopefully they will hold up and serve him well.
Definitely you upgraded the protection, get the motoz on and ride on Timmy!
Hopefully they do their job. Motoz are here just got to get them mounted up
Gosh, I wish I had a _Timmy_ to take care of the other side of the bike.
Erm ... is he available in September when I change the oil on my Harley?

Team work makes dream work 😁. He might be 😉😁
Did you try leaving everything threaded just enough to hold it together and then tightening each one a little at a time? Kinda like putting a car on a truck. Do it in a sequence. I scored a great set of crash bars for my 2023 KLR brand new cost 300 bucks for 100 bucks. He swore they wouldnt go. I had them on in 30 minutes. And each side was spaced accordingly. And since I put mine on Ive seen numerous people claiming either their holes arent lining up etc or one side is closer to the tank than the other etc. And its because theyre cranking them down as they go. I learned this trick raising 5 kids and putting swing sets together lol Directions? We dont need no stinking directions. And if you dont have a random nut and or washer left over....you aint normal lol
Oh yeah we did that but those screws on the bottom of the cross bar are at the back facing towards the motor. I have no idea why they didn't put them facing the front. You're right if you don't have a few screws leftover you didn't do it right 😂
Nice job gents! Got to have some protection on the bike ;-)
Thanks! We definitely do 😂
"Motoz or Nothing" has been replaced, I will always think "Instructions are for women" when watching the channel 😁 - Frank
I thought it was motoz or nuthin'
🤣😂
How about a pick up test so we can all see how hard your bike is to pickup? Thanks for the video!
Here's one with my daughter picking up my 650. I'll do another one of one of me or Timmy picking one of the 1000's up as soon as I can. Thanks. th-cam.com/video/dw05_6nZqAA/w-d-xo.html
Dude. Seriously? #rude #girlpower
I know. I did apologize. You know that men don't read directions 😂
@@TheBeardedGrump 🤣😂🤣 you knew it was coming😂
@@tracey38999 that's why I went ahead and apologize on the video 🤣
