The Texelent accessory bar is a new, unique mounting system that fits the Gold Wing 1500 and 1800 motorcycles. The bar fastens to the clutch & brake mounting bolts on the Gold Wing handlebars, and provides a mounting platform across the bars. Besides providing a convenient place for your accessories, the Texelent bar also reduces handlebar "buzz" on the GL1800 Gold Wings.

The Texelent system consists of the bar itself, plus several different mounting brackets for it. You can also use R-A-M mounts in conjunction with the Texelent to position items above or below the level of the bar.

The Texelent is available in a couple of versions. The GL1500 Texelent bar can be mounted "high" or "low" on the handebars, so that you can position it properly for your height and accessory combination to avoid blocking instrumentation. The GL1800 Texelent will also mount high or low, and a "Plus Spacer Kit" is also available to better fine-tune the position. Or, for the ultimate in accessory mounting optons on the 1800, choose the Dual bar, which features both low and high Texelent bars for maximum flexibility.

In addition to the bar, you'll need some of the Texelent clamps. The choices here can be a little confusing, so don't hesitate to contact us for help in configuring your system. Each of the clamps below includes a description of the most common uses, but certainly you can be creative and adapt them to do just about whatever you need.


Texelent GL1800 Gold Wing Bar Kits
Texelent GL1800 Gold Wing Bar Kit includes handlebar brackets and one Texelent crossbar mount. Two versions of the mounting brackets are available:

Original Brackets are smaller and provide a cleaner overall look on the bike. These are ideal for a motorcycle that is being accessorized from scratch, and has nothing currently mounted to the handlebar clutch/brake mounting bolts.

Combo Brackets incorporate an extra set of threaded mounting holes on each side, which are spaced and threaded identically to the clutch/brake sockets already on the bike. This allows items already mounted on a GL1800's handlebars (RAM mounts, drink holders, Butler cups, etc.) to be transferred over to the Texelent brackets without needing to purchase TX-THCK 2-hole mounts.
