Backcountry handlebar covers supplied through Motion Factory Racing. Supporting handguards or brush guards are required. Check control clearance before use. Goldwing installations require the separately sold adapter described by the supplier.

Details and installation

Keep those hands warm this year when you are riding in the elements. These will work with flag style or wrap around handlebar guards. Installation is easy and only takes a couple of minutes to take on and take off. They make a huge difference when cruising at highway speeds or on single track. 

Made for all riders, dirt bikers, dual sport, ADV, and cruisers, the Backcountry™ hand covers keep your hands covered, no matter the season, and are not so bulky that they get in your way while standing. You can even toss them on your snowbike or sled in the winter to keep those hands warmer. 

Honda Goldwing - When you install the separately sold Hippo Hands Bar End Adapter, the Backcountry model fits Goldwings perfectly. GWs after 2018 can also opt for the Rogue model.

Harley cruisers - This is the model for you. Be sure to have hand guards/brush guards installed to support hand covers properly. We recommend ADVANBLACK brush guards for Harley cruisers.

  • Compact size with plenty of protection.
  • Perfect for those who like to stand and ride.
  • Enhanced safety with a reflective panel for low-light rides.

Customer video review of 70/100-19 E-Moto Motorcycle Inner Tube (2.75/3.00-19) for Surron, E-Ride PRO & Talaria

The tube popped on first inflation; not sure if it arrived with integrity issue or is operational error. Would like a replacement tube shipped.

Store owner replied: Hey Luke, sorry to hear that. Tubes are shipped brand new, and unless there was visible shipping damage, what you're describing sounds a lot like a pinch flat during installation. We've all done it. Motorcycle tubes can get pinched between the tire and rim during mounting, and sometimes they don't show themselves until inflation. For the next install, we recommend using a little baby powder or soapy water and taking extra care with the tire spoons. That goes a long way toward preventing pinches.

Customer photo review of MAXIMA MTL-R Fluid Light Racing 80w Liter

I ordered 2 different items. The first item which was oil delivered within 2 days. Very fast. I was pleased with this. I was hoping the handlebars I ordered would also arrive. Live the Gnar said it was shipping seperate. As of now its been 7days since I placed the order. I reached out via email. Someone responded saying they would look at order and tracking. Its been 2 days and no one has responded. I bought the handlebars as a gift for someone. Definitely would've thought I would've received them or at least received a response from Live the Gnar. This sucks. Either way, I'll just order from another vendor from now on.

MAXIMA MTL-R Fluid Light Racing 80w Liter

Store owner replied: Hey Tony, glad the oil got there quick. The handlebars shipped separately, which is pretty common when different products come from different warehouses. Oil also has to be packaged separately for shipping reasons. The tracking for the bars was emailed directly to you, and they were already on the way when this review was posted. We totally understand being excited for a gift to arrive, but a one-star review feels a little harsh for an order that was shipped and in transit. Either way, we appreciate the business and hope the bars worked out once they landed.
