Default Kaymar rear bar

Not bagging the product, it certainly looks awesome.

But I can't justify $2,500.

Am I the only one? Am I just being tight?

Seems these are being made and priced solely for dealer fit and finance inclusion. Aftermarket doesn't get a look in.

That's a LOT of money for a rear bar..... You could get a custom one fabbed up for less.

Must be a really special product.

I find it hard to justify that kind of price for a local product.

Just had a quote from one of the sponsors on the new AEV rar bar at the same price.

That includes transport, a cut for the seller & arguably one of the best engineered products on the US market.

You be the judge.

My thoughts too.

When I get time I will buy a new Mig welder and make a bar with dual carrier. Will cost about the same but have a new welder afterwards.

I reckon the American ones, in America at the $1kUS range, are on the money. Importing just makes it fairly nasty too (no offence to those who have done this). Pity we can't seem to build a mass produced unit for similar coin........

All my life I've built everything I needed, except for bullbars. This time around I was hoping not to! Oh well.......
