Troubleshooting

Parts do not align correctly during installation.

Double-check that you have the correct kit for your specific motorcycle model and year. Ensure all previous mounting hardware is removed and that the new parts are oriented correctly before tightening fasteners fully. Minor adjustments might be possible, but significant misalignment indicates an incorrect fit.

Plastic appears faded or discolored after exposure to sunlight.

While Acerbis plastics are designed for durability, prolonged and intense UV exposure can eventually affect color. Regular cleaning and applying a UV protectant spray specifically designed for plastics can help mitigate fading.

Scratches or minor cracks appear after a fall.

These plastics are designed to be durable, but severe impacts can cause damage. Minor scratches can sometimes be buffed out with plastic polish. For significant damage, individual replacement parts within the kit may be available from Acerbis.
