I agree with not uninstalling the exhaust. Quite easy if you are patient and have hinged sockets and spanners and a socket extension.
I could not get the exhaust off for the life of me, but with the help of my 9 year old daughter managed to reach the bolts and nuts and get everything on and torqued up. Thanks for the video!

Your video totally saved me tonight. I never would have had the courage to tackle the dresser bars on my street scrambler if not for this video. Thank you!

Really appreciate you stepping up where triumph was lacking. I purposely put my "dresser bar condom" on upside for you. Thanks again

Awesome, I’m honored😜👍🏻 Thanks my friend. Thanks for watching. Glad it helped.
Excellent. I'll be doing the install this week. I pick mine up Monday after getting powder coated black (with radiator and other bits). I also got the upper SW Motech bars that are getting powder coated the same black. Thanks again, you make my life easier!

So glad the videos are helping I’m anxious to see how your bike looks it would be cool if you could send me some pictures email me at lwbaldep@gmail.com when you get it done. Thanks for watching my friend.
This was really helpful. I've done mine today. I hung the header up with a luggage strap as per another suggestion to save removing the oxygen sensor and also unbolted the horn. The plastic blanking plug will unscrew quite easily if you push an Allen key from behind. I used a breaker bar to loosen the torx engine screws. Retightening them was scary. I set it back to 90nm as I wondered if it was ever going to click, then increased it to 105nm for the first bolt. Cheers for the video! Bob, UK.

Just fitted a set of these Triumph bars on a Street Scrambler 900. I found the O2 sensor doesn’t have to come off and the exhaust can be hung out of the way quite easily with a cable tie.

Job done with thanks to this info. I did manage to do it by bending the 17mm ring spanner which meant I didn't need to remove exhaust. Disclaimer, I have small hands ✋

Just about to start the job now and needed this video.
It’s a bit fiddly but you can install them without removing the header 👍
Don't re-use your exhaust gaskets guys. Please.
The plastic plug @ 7:30 you can simply unscrew.

Can anyone speak to the effectiveness of these? Do they do a good job of protecting the bike? I want to practice pivot turns but feel like every time I drop the bike, something breaks. These don’t seem to hold up the same as “true” ADV bikes.

I don’t believe I would be able to install this with the upper bars I have from Hepco and Becker. The lower mount is shared with the dresser upper mount… bummer

You better don't follow these instruction because you don't have to remove the exhaust. Better look at "triumph instructions". 😉 But nevertheless thanks to the guy for his video.
