FAQs
Will this melt against the exhaust pipe?
The protector is made from high-heat resistant silicone specifically engineered for motorcycle exhaust environments, so it will not melt under normal operating temperatures.
Can I use this on a 2-stroke or 4-stroke bike?
Yes, the Apico Exhaust Silencer Protector is compatible with both 2-stroke and 4-stroke silencers provided they fall within the range of the universal dimensions.
Does the protector leave marks on the exhaust?
No, the silicone material is designed to be non-abrasive, which actually prevents the scratches that would otherwise be caused by dirt trapped between your boot and the silencer.
Is this protector waterproof?
Yes, being made of silicone, it is entirely waterproof and will not absorb water or rust.
Can I cut the protector to fit a smaller area?
While the material can be trimmed, it is recommended to use it as-is to maintain structural integrity and fitment.
Troubleshooting
Protector slipping or moving during a ride
Clean both the silencer surface and the interior of the protector with isopropyl alcohol to remove any residual grease or film, then reinstall tightly.
Difficulty fitting on a tapered exhaust
Ensure the protector is positioned on the flattest section of the silencer canister; if the taper is too extreme, ensure the flexible silicone is pulled evenly to maintain tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward due to the flexible nature of the silicone. Ensure your exhaust silencer is cool to the touch and completely free of dirt, oil, or grease before applying the protector; a clean surface ensures the best grip. Wrap the protector snugly around the body of the silencer, ensuring the material is centered over the most exposed area. For care, simply remove the protector during routine bike washing, scrub it with mild soapy water to remove debris, dry thoroughly, and reinstall. Avoid using harsh chemical degreasers that might degrade the silicone over time.
