X-adv Givi crash bars (on 2025 Honda Xadv) Massive fail... Not so, official Honda accessory.

I cant believe it, GIVI has done it again. This time things went from bad to worse once the Crash bars were installed onto the 2025 Honda X-adv, it soon became obvious that there was a big issue with the bars obstructing where the rider can place their feet.

In the end, I had to undertake some fairly major adjustments, in the form of cutting and welding, to get these crash bars to be mounted to the X-adv in such a way that there was nothing getting in the way.

I was very happy with the ultimate end results, but unless you have a spare day, a welder, grinder, and a tin of paint in the shed, perhaps just stick to the OEM Honda ones instead...

I hope that this video has been of some use to some one out there looking to buy crash bars for their Honda X-adv. There are many to choose from, but I can't recommend these particular ones. Unless of course, you only place your feet on the Horizontal boards, as in that case you wont have a problem.
