Cobra Freeway Bars for M50 - Motorcycle-Journal Forums

Rivoth · 06-24-2005, 10:24 AM

Hello all,

I'm picking up my new M50 today and there are some accesories that I would like to add to it.

There are currently no Cobra Freeway bars shown as being available for the Boulevard M50. Does anybody have experience with whether the C50 bars will fit on the M50? The C50 has floorboards instead of the M50 pegs and since Freeway bars frequently share those mounts I wasn't sure if that would cause a problem.

Thanks

call them up and they will help you get the right one.

I want to get the engine guard and the chrome radiator cover, does anyone know if they are both mountable without modification?

those look sweet. I want to do that and get some bolt-on foot pegs. I'm concerned about the chrome radiator cover fitting with the engine guards, where do the engine guards mount?

top bolt goes 2/3 up the frame behind the radiator, bottom bolt hole is on the back side of foot peg......

From everything I've read, if you get the chrome radiator cover with the engine guards you do have to make some type of modification

blitz · 06-25-2005, 11:06 PM

what kind of modifications? Will a dremel do it?

Aw jeez ... something else I have to get now.

I got my Cobra Freeway bars in yesterday and they are definately the same for the M50 and the C50. They installed easily and quickly although it helps to have a helper on the other side of the bike. I'll see if I can figure out how to add a picture so you can see what it looks like.

Does anyone have a Part number for the Cobra Freeway Bars that fit the M50. Is it the one listed for the Valusia 800.

Honestly, Scott, you don't NEED a chrome radiator cover. Gonna mess up that "stealth" look. Besides Christmas will be here before you know it...
