I almost three years later this video is still helping. Thanks for making this installation easier.

Looks sharp. Always a relief when things go together as advertised.

Thanks for this vid! I've just bought a CB500X and together with 12V socket, this and centre-stand will be the first mods I'll probably do!

I'm here for the accent ;)... actually waited weeks for my skidplate and plan on putting it on this week after I get my bark-busters sorted (not as straightforward as one might think). We have had a 6 month long winter her in northern Wisconsin USA and stil have average of 2' of snow on the ground, motorways with tons of brine/salt and divots in the asphalt (potholes). City streets need to be patched (highways are ok), and rains need to wash the salts. I've got 4 miles on my bike, none by me. Cheers!

Clear and instructive. Thanks

thank you very much!

Great choice!

Great video - very helpful. Anyone fitted this with the Heed upper and lower crash bars fitted. I think it will all fit OK because the spacers here (at 9:04) are retained by the Heed bars - and the SW bracket will effectively replace those spacers

Hello i have cbx 2022 and put givi crash bar only up.its easy to put mototech now.

Thanks for the video! Helped me a lot. I only wished you had included the torque pecs for the engine bolts as I am really struggeling with reading the diagrams I find online. I already pushed installing the bash plate for a long time as I'm terrified of overtorquing them and causing serious damage...

Great video. Thank you. Has made me help decide to go with RR instead. I feel this will not hold up off road. Gravel is fine but then why bother. I'm not worried about a centre stand on this bike. Im using a track stand if need be which can be folded and packed away.

Just wondered why you went for a bash plate instead of crash bars as you don’t do any heavy off roads and bars would save you bike from damage when dropped, good vids enjoy watching .

I need one of these too!

thanks for your video my concerns with the SW-Motech system - is that the shocks go directly to the engine case and this could break. That is what I hear in the forums and reviews. I tend more to the Really Raid solution. Maybe you can write something about it, since you have now 2 years experience.

Great job and looks nice. Can you get to the oil sump plug easily for an oil change or do you have to take the guard/plate off? I know with the Rally-Raid guard it has to be removed to do the oil change. Many thanks.

Good video thanks. What was the torque for the engine mounts?

Hi, did you manage to change the oil with the guard fitted? I don’t think I would want to take the skidplate off every time I changed the oil!! All the best, John

Andy, did you have the OE centre stand with that bash plate?

what make lockthread / strength were you using?

Hi m8 , the mounting bars look rather close to the exaust pipes, whats clearance is there ? Thanks

Oe centre stand fitt with this sw motech engine guard??

Will this fit for 2021 mode?

bueno a ver...primero antes de hacer ese desastre con el loctite, pasar un macho por la rosaca motor, despues limpiar el tornillo y sacarle el pegamento viejo y despues usar 1/4 del pegamento que usaste y apretar el tornillo a especificacion del fabricante
