The GIVI FB1178 crossbar is designed for motorcycle riders who need a secure, vibration-resistant location to mount navigation devices or smartphones behind the bike's fairing. It offers an optimal viewing angle that keeps the rider's eyes closer to the road, though users should ensure their specific motorcycle model supports this mounting point behind the windshield/fairing before purchase.

No, the FB1178 is the support bar only. You will need to purchase a compatible GIVI holder such as the S920M or S920L separately.
The 12mm bar is designed for device holders, but many standard action camera mounts compatible with 12mm bars can be attached.
It requires basic mechanical knowledge and access behind the fairing, so it is considered a moderate installation task.
The bar is exactly 12mm in diameter.
It is designed to be positioned to minimize interference with the bike's stock instruments, but positioning can vary slightly by specific motorcycle model.
Ensure the holder clamp is tightened correctly; if the bar has become polished from the clamp, use a small piece of rubber shim to increase grip.
Check all mounting bolts behind the fairing to ensure they are torqued to the correct specifications and the bracket is not touching any plastic fairing parts directly.
Installation involves securing the FB1178 bracket behind the fairing structure. You will likely need to partially disassemble the windshield or instrument cluster housing to reach the mounting points. Always ensure all bolts are tightened to manufacturer specifications to prevent loosening due to engine vibration.
The FB1178 is explicitly designed for use with the following GIVI products:
Periodically inspect the mounting bolts during your regular maintenance intervals. As the bar is often exposed to the elements behind the windshield, keep the mounting points clean of debris. If the powder coating is chipped by heavy-duty clamps, apply a small amount of touch-up paint to prevent oxidation.
