C1 Adventure Tower / Honda CRF300L
A compact adventure cockpit that makes room for your navigation, keeps your OEM lighting and keeps the trail in view.
Developed in Australia. Built around the CRF300L.
01 / The idea
The C1 brings a compact, lower profile adventure tower with just a sprinkle of Dakar to the CRF300L. By raising and relocating the original headlight, it creates useful space for navigation and wind protection without the height of a full rally tower.
The OEM headlight and indicators move forward with the
tower. Headlight angle adjustment is retained, with no
cutting or modification of the factory wiring harness
for a simple install and less compliance issues.
A navigation position designed to be readable in both riding positions, while keeping the tower low enough to preserve your seated view of the road and trail.
Choose the full tower with windshield and dash panel, a screen-free setup, or the core structure. Multi-position mounting with popular AMPS and RAM patterns to fit your preferred navigation device and accessories.
Room for your navigation setup
From a compact navigation display to a larger tablet,
the C1 creates a dedicated mounting area above the
original instruments. For comparison our photos include
a mock-up of a larger HugeRock X72 tablet
(213x126x22mm).
The optional lower dash panel gives you space for a USB
power socket, switches and accessory indicator lights.
Choose the electrical equipment that suits your bike and
use the preformed holes to mount accessory switches and
lights to clean up your bars.
The lower dash panel allows for any standard power
outlet with a 21mm hole but it is designed specifically
around using the Scanstrut Rokk Charge Pro (SC-USB-03)
which is claimed to be 'the only USB-C charger on the
market that remains waterproof while in use'.
Navigation devices, device-specific
mounts, USB sockets, switches and other electrical
accessories are not included.
02 / Under the screen
A formed stainless-steel structure provides the mounting backbone. Stainless M5 hardware with nyloc nuts ties the assembly together, with with non-structural parts printed using UV, heat and weather resistant ASA filament completing the shape around the bike.
The 4.5 mm grey-tinted polycarbonate windshield is shaped to take wind pressure off your chest while keeping your helmet in clean air. Actual airflow varies with rider height and setup.

05 / Before you head out
Currently we are launching the CRF300L adventure tower
but have plans to roll out similar designs for other
dual-sport bikes used in adventure riding.
The C1 is being developed around the Honda CRF300L,
with the LED-headlight arrangement shown in these
images. Please confirm your model year and market with
us before ordering. Other bike-specific towers are
planned as the range develops.
Basically, if your bike has the led headlight and
indicators like shown in our photos then this tower is
for you. If you have the halogen headlight variant
then sorry but this will not fit your bike as the
mounting points are different and as Australia has only
ever had the LED variant then we don't have access to a
bike to design the halogen option.
No. The C1 relocates the original headlight and
indicators, retains headlight angle adjustment and is
designed to use the existing factory lighting harness
without modification.
As well as providing for a simpler look and install this
reduces the compliance issues. We can't speak for all
countries but this design stay within the requirements
of the Australian ADR requirements and therefore isn't
just for 'off-road use only'.
If you need more light then we recommend mounting a
lightbar or other spotlights. Due to the large number of
options and preferences it's just not feasible for us to
provide specific mounting brackets off our tower.
This is the only permanent change on the bike but we
provide a template and the correct sized drill bit in
the kit so you can get a clean install. The windshield
standoffs pass through the original plastic headlight
fascia, which requires drilling for that configuration.
The screen-free configurations do not need those
standoff holes.
Yes. Development arrangements have included a mock-up
of the HugeRock X72 tablet to confirm space for a larger
device. The mounting holes include multi-position AMPS
and RAM patterns.
Confirm your device and mount dimensions with us.
Navigation equipment, USB sockets, switches and
accessory wiring are supplied separately by the buyer.
While we are based in Australia our pricing is listed
in AUD, international enquiries are welcome. Email your
country and postcode for a shipping quote and
availability.
The tower retains OEM lighting with the aim of reducing compliance issues, but local requirements and rules for vehicle modifications for your own country still apply.
The windshield is made of 4.5mm polycarbonate so it's
not prone to shattering or splintering like some acrylic
windshields. But it's not completely indestructable and
being plastic is still prone to scratches. Fine
scratches can be carfully buffed out but we recommend
just enjoying the adventure and just add more stickers
if it really bothers you.
Rinse off loose dirt, wash gently with mild soap and lukewarm water, then rinse thoroughly. Use a soft, clean cloth. Keep acetone, brake cleaner, abrasive cleaners and unapproved solvents away from the polycarbonate.
