These were on the bike when I bought it, so I don't know where they were purchased from. I can say that it has been on its side in the grass and mud with no head damage. Easy to remove valve cover too. three mounting points per side and a joining sleeve on the front. Don't think that they are currently made like this. Good luck -Matthew

thanks, I'll start digging. Do you have to remove them for oil changes?

They don't have to be removed. I you do want to take them off, tank removal is preferred. Don't let that frighten you. Removing the tank takes me... maybe 3 minutes.
The main thing I like about these bars is that have a 3/4 wrap around the heads....& are they ugly. Matthew

This might be a bit late. I bought a set of hepco and becker crash bars. They were easy to put on still have access to the oil filter and can still get the rocker covers off.
