Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install your Acerbis kit, ensure you have a standard metric toolset. Start by removing the old plastics one section at a time, keeping track of the specific hardware used for each panel, as some bikes utilize different bolt lengths. When installing the new plastics, begin by hand-threading all bolts to ensure proper alignment before tightening them fully with a wrench to avoid stripping the plastic or metal inserts.
Care Instructions
- Clean plastics with mild soap and water to maintain the finish.
- Avoid using high-pressure power washers too close to the surface, as this can degrade the finish over time.
- Use a plastic polish or dedicated off-road cleaner to restore luster after heavy usage.
- Periodically check all mounting bolts for tightness after the first few rides, as plastics may settle.
