Product Information
Full details
The Acerbis X-Future Handguards are designed for dual-sport and off-road motorcyclists who require a lightweight, ventilated solution without sacrificing impact resistance. These guards excel in providing a balanced shield against debris and brush while maintaining airflow for comfort during long rides, though they are strictly intended for 22mm (7/8 inch) handlebars, limiting compatibility with thicker aftermarket oversized bars.

FAQs
Will these fit a bike with 1 1/8 inch bars?
No, these are designed exclusively for 22mm (7/8 inch) diameter handlebars.
Do these protect against hard bark impacts?
While they offer significant impact resistance, they are open handguards and lack the metal wrap-around bar needed for high-speed tree collisions.
Can I replace just the cover if it breaks?
Yes, the two-component cover design allows for component replacement if damaged.
Are these legal for street use?
Yes, they do not obstruct hand controls and meet safety standards for debris protection.
Do they come with all mounting hardware?
Yes, the package includes the necessary mounting hardware for standard 22mm handlebar installation.
Troubleshooting
Handguard vibrates or shifts during use
Check the mounting bolt torque and ensure the rubber spacer is correctly seated against the handlebar.
Interference with clutch or brake levers
Utilize the two-position horizontal adjustment to slide the guard further away from the lever pivot point.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent balance of protection and cooling airflow
- Lightweight construction prevents front-end heavy feel
- Adjustable horizontal positioning for custom fit
- High-impact resistance despite compact size
- Vibrant red color scheme for enhanced visibility
Cons
- Not compatible with 28mm (fat bar) handlebars
- Open design offers less cold-weather protection than full-wrap guards
- Requires specific tools for horizontal adjustment
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward due to the universal mounting system designed for 22mm handlebars. Ensure your handlebar ends are clear of obstructions before tightening the mounting bolts. Periodically check the mounting hardware for vibration-induced loosening after aggressive rides. To clean, use mild soap and water with a soft cloth; avoid harsh chemical degreasers that may discolor the red finish or degrade the plastic polymers over time. If the plastic surface becomes scuffed from trail debris, a plastic polishing compound can help restore the aesthetic finish.
