I just ordered a kako sports bar. Wanted to see how many people installed them and kept them on. I liked them when i first seen them and think they will look good on my shadow black. Please show pic.

Installed the Keko sport bar on 2024 maverick. Looks good. Only difficulty was threaded some bolts in factory screw inserts. Quality piece. also bought Keko's soft rollup that fits with the sports bar. It is also a quality piece. Haven't installed yet.

I would love to see pic. Mine is coming in around the 28th of february. How long did it take to install ? Is the keko soft roll up similar to others.

Keep us posted on how it turns out. I'm very tempted to ordering it. I like the look, but I want to get other peoples perspective; what you like and don't like.

I like the design. However, there seem to be no mounting points for lights. That seems to be a bit odd for something that isn't sturdy enough to be a roll bar and doesn't seem to have any provision for tie downs or anything else. I guess it's just for looks, which seems like a bit of a missed opportunity.

I’ll get a pic. It took about an hour. Soft rollup has a quality latch and does not use Velcro has a nice interlock system on the sides.

Shouldn’t be an issue. There are mounts for lights that clamp around the bar, you can also drill straight through and use a long bolt.
I can definitely mount lights on it one way or another but I want to make sure the rack will mount correctly to the truck and work with my cover.

I've had mine on for a year and using Keko's soft roll tonneau cover. All for the look, and for me, it looks Tonka Tough.
