they look like wunderlich bars to me....
looks like I owe you one 
Just getting a price for the bent bit, comes as a fitting kit, but if too much will take and try and get straightened and welded.

They are Wunderlich ones cos I've got a set with a bend in similar to yours. I'd be interested to know if you can just buy the piece.

would you trust it to withstand another hit, though?
what are those bars made of?
Got some TT head protectors comming and would get it braced rather than just welded over the crack
Can't say but they are rusting where it is split
As for the spare bars, all part of the fitting kit and SPC should be calling back with a price, but they can only contact Wunderlick by email.

That's the principle behind crash bars, crumnple zones and all sorets of crash protection....it's supposed to deform a bit to absorb the impact.....
If the bars were solid and rigid enough, ALL the force would be transmitted straight back to the mounting points and you could well end up with holes in engine casings etc.
Even a 'small off' can involve some pretty large forces wuith a bike as big as a GS- looks like these have done their job to me.
Might be worth heating them and gently trying to bend them back into shape??
Repeated heating will make them more brittle, but a bit of gentle warming shouldn't, and if you're going to bin them anyway, you haven't got much to lose.
Called SPC who then called wundelick and the price for the fitting kit.........£20 +VAT can't complain at that
