    Heed Crash Bars / is the 950 same as 1200?

    Greetings, Gents,

    I am in the US, where HEED doesn't seem to have any local representation.  I have found them available for sale on EBAY, but they seem to all be listed as being for the 1200 MS.  When I type in the 2017 950MS, it says it isn't compatible.  So my question to you that have them in the UK and EU, is the HEED crash bar set the same for a 2017 950 MS as for a 2017 1200MS?

    Thanks,
    Robert

    Until anyone can confirm from experience,  you can send an email to Heed, I am sure you will get a reply.

    Did you search crash bars on the forum.  I remember coming across a thread on these.

    OK, got word from the HEED source that they do fit.  Apparently, only does not fit the Enduro (bigger gas tank).  So any other fellow yanks, I just ordered from EBAY, coming from the factory in Poland, will keep you posted on the process.

    Fantastic.  I think CZRacer has the Heed bars.

    I think Heed crashbars look's the best on the MTS, hardly decided to go with the Givi ones, even the Ducati guy recommended them and I saw that he has fitted on his bike.
    Unfortunately, I had the chance/bad luck to test them :021:
    I was in the gas station, waiting for friends to get fuel and I forgot the put the stand. In the next sec was down. Almost no damage to the bike. The crash bar has a few visible scratches, one on the mirror and a minor one on the handguard. When I will pick up the gran turismo screen from Ducati (hopefully in two weeks) I will ask them to replace the part of the handguard. It's the one from above the signal.
    So I found the hard way that Givi do the job, I was expecting the pick up pieces from the panel and handguard.

    Indeed I do, and I like them very much.
