Crashbar

[f_capo]

Hello
my name is Filip and i'm living in Belgium.
Since many weeks i'm trying to purchase an original crashbar from my local dealer. But it seems they don't like to sell one. Instead they are insisting the Hepco & Becker one is a better protection for oil reservoir etc.
Now my question, is the Aprilia crashbar readily available in Italy ? If yes, can it be purchased via the Internet?

thanks
Filip

if you need further info don't hesitate to ask...

I know there's a group of Belgian & Dutch Capo owners that sometimes are meeting each other for a bier? Are you part of them?
Are you scheduling to visit Intermot fair in Munich next September?
We'll surely be there...

Thanks for the response.
But my dealer could not find that part number in his computer.
He promised me to contact Aprilia, we will see waht's next now.
By the way, is the crashbar for the Rally Raid exactly the same type or is there some difference ?
Or in other words is ordering the RR type an alternative?

thanks, Filip

Filip, if you or other Capo fellows will be there, just let us know in advance and maybe we can meet each other...

Since about 5 weeks the crashbar is ordered but yesterday my dealer called Aprilia Belgium and they even can't tell when it will arrive.
Who knows more about delivery of the crashbars?

thanks
Filip

...maybe the delay is due to the finance shortage that is affecting Aprilia in the last month...
but today it seems that "fresh" money is arriving...
and I guess also from now on the spare parts and the optionals...
