Just finished a couple of days Bodgineering my ‘16 LC;

1. Getting Barkbusters to fit.
You can basically dispense with any of the fitting kit supplied! I had to open out the ferruled holes in the guard by using a small socket, a larger socket and a percussion device. Having removed the BMW guards I then reused the end fittings to attach the busters. Just the job for my arthritic old hands.

I just removed the aluminium inserts in the bark busters and used a washer so that the BMW bar end bolts gripped the bark buster 0- job done with the BMW hand guards still in place. Quick and easy

Me too, I just put them over the BMW hand guards, used a pair of washers I had in the garage on the outside of the Barkbuster Blizards, ...... Job done ! (And my hands are warm again)

That looks just the job! I too have the SW Motech rig and was wondering how to fix the Touratech toolbox. Any chance of Bodgineering another set of fixings for me? If I tried to do it myself it would end in tears! Happy to pay with Paypal or whatever you prefer. Thanks!

OK, if that's the case it doesn't sound too complicated. Any drilling of machining involved?
