Product Information
Full details
The Acerbis X-Factor Hand Guard Shells are designed for off-road enthusiasts and dual-sport riders who utilize the existing Acerbis X-Factor handguard system. These premium replacement spoilers provide an essential layer of protection against trail debris, stone impacts, and harsh weather conditions, effectively extending the lifespan of your protective gear. While these shells offer excellent durability and a sleek, sporty aesthetic, it is important to note that they are replacement components specifically engineered to fit the X-Factor model and will not install onto non-compatible handguard assemblies.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Does this package include the metal handguard bars?
No, this product is the replacement plastic shell only and does not include the metal mounting bars.
Will these fit other Acerbis handguards?
These shells are specifically engineered for the X-Factor series and are not guaranteed to fit other Acerbis models.
Is any hardware included for the installation?
The kit includes the pair of spoilers; you should reuse the existing fasteners from your original X-Factor shells.
Can these be painted?
While the material can be painted, it is intended for off-road use and paint may chip or peel due to high-impact debris.
How many shells are in the box?
The box contains two shells, one for the left side and one for the right side.
Are these shells flexible or rigid?
They are constructed from a high-impact semi-rigid plastic designed to absorb energy rather than shatter.
Troubleshooting
Shell vibrates or rattles during riding
Check that all mounting screws are properly seated and tightened to the manufacturer's torque specifications.
Shell does not fit correctly
Verify that your base handguard assembly is indeed the Acerbis X-Factor model, as these shells are not universal.
Surface finish appears dull after cleaning
Use a dedicated plastic restorative spray or silicon-based protectant to rejuvenate the matte black finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install these replacement shells, align the mounting points with the existing X-Factor handguard arms. Ensure that all fasteners are tightened securely to prevent vibration or rattling during engine operation. Because these are plastic components, avoid overtightening the screws, as this could lead to cracking the shell.
Compatibility is limited strictly to the Acerbis X-Factor handguard model (MPN 0017632.090). Periodically inspect the shells for signs of deep gouges or cracks after particularly aggressive rides. Cleaning is simple: use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth to remove mud and trail grime. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents or pressure washers at close range, as these can degrade the material finish over time.
