Bare Bones generators save you money since they only include what is necessary and leave the optional or add-on's for the end-user to do independently. For example, you hook it up to your fuel tank, battery, and electrical panel. The generator still comes with an auto-start controller, main circuit breaker, and muffler. If you are a do-it-yourselfer or equipment manufacturer, bare-bones generators will save you money. 
 
If you took away our weather enclosure, base, battery and fuel tank, you end up with this generator. It has all of the features and functions you would expect from the more expensive versions.
