“I don’t know if you even pay attention to this kind of mails, and since you probably have more important mails to attend to, i’ll try and make it short!
My name is Pedro Costa, and i own a F800GS with a couple of your aftermarket part’s, between them, ADV-Spec crashbars, and bashplate, wich have been doing they’r job beyond my expectations, plenty of dirt crashes, and not one scratch.
But this time was different, a head-on collision into a car (Audi A4 touring)!
Not only i survived, i merely got a scratch, and if it weren’t for the crash bars, i would have my leg completely crushed (instead i just got projected), might have even died.
Next day i was as good as new, much better than the car driver anyway.
The radiator was the only visible damage to the bike, besides some plastic and gear leaver, and you can see from the pictures how violent the collision was.
Notice how the crash bars fixations were bent (both sides of the bike actually, altough the right side of the bike didn’t have one scratch)
So thank you.
Thank you for dedicating time on developing truly effective crash bars, that go much further than the other brands go in terms of protection, for the rider and bike.
If today i can walk, it’s thank to you guy’s.
Thank you
Once i recover my bike from the accident (BMW ain’t cheap!), you’ll definetly be getting an order from me.
Sorry for my bad English and even worst cellphone pictures, i had better angles, butt with all the adrenaline they got all shaky.
Thank you again!
Pedro Costa”
