Re:
 

Does this pose any sort of danger in a crash, having this single bar jutting out?

Re: Highway Bars
 

Assuming it's not wider than the handle bars. When you are lane splitting, especially at low speed, tight fits, it's best if you can assume your bars or your mirrors are the widest thing on your bike.

Re: Highway Bars
 

I am not so much asking if they will cause a crash, but rather if you have a crash, does this single tube jutting out pose a danger to the rider?

Re: Highway Bars
 

As long as they are built good & strong, they would be the same as ones you buy and pay a lot more for.They will keep the bike from going all the way over & pinning your leg.

:cool: :rawk:

Slick simple way to mount the bar and pegs. As for predictioning potential hazards to health in a crash............there is only one true way to find out. Don't go there. Just ride and enjoy your passion.

Re: Highway Bars
 

I am considering a modification like this as opposed to crash bars. What I am interested in knowing is if this simple pipe jutting out constitues a hazzard in a crash.

Re: Highway Bars
 

I wouldn't worry too much about the hazard. In a moving drop the square tubing may twist back from the mounting point but the header pipe will more than likely arrest it's travel. If you do not feel comfortable with your set-up you may want to get some MC crash bars and install highway pegs on them.
