Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Acerbis Fork Guards typically requires only basic hand tools, such as an 8mm or 10mm T-handle wrench. Begin by removing the factory hardware from your current guards. Align the Acerbis unit with the existing mounting tabs on the fork legs, ensuring the plastic is properly seated against the fork casing to prevent rattling. Tighten the bolts firmly but avoid overtightening, as the plastic tabs may crack under excessive pressure. For care, clean the guards using a mild soap and water solution after every ride to preserve the yellow finish. Avoid using high-pressure power washers directly against the seals or mounting points to ensure the longevity of both the product and your bike's fork hardware.
