Product Information

Full details

This R&G Motorcycle Exhaust Hanger and Footrest Blanking Plate in Red is for riders looking to achieve a cleaner, sportier look by removing passenger footpegs while securely mounting the exhaust. Its key benefit is enhancing motorcycle aesthetics and functionality with durable, precision-engineered components. A caveat is that it's designed specifically for removing pillion footrests, so it's not suitable for bikes where these are retained. The product offers a high-strength aluminium construction, a precision CNC-machined finish for easy integration, and a powder-coated surface for longevity and corrosion resistance, providing both visual and practical improvements.

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this product?

The R&G Motorcycle Exhaust Hanger and Footrest Blanking Plate is designed to replace the pillion (passenger) footrests, providing a cleaner look and a secure mounting point for the exhaust system.

What material is this hanger made from?

It is constructed from high-strength, lightweight aluminium.

Does this product affect exhaust performance?

This product primarily affects the aesthetics and weight distribution by removing the passenger footrests. It does not inherently change the exhaust system's performance characteristics, but a cleaner setup may slightly improve aerodynamics.

Is this product universal or bike-specific?

While R&G produces many exhaust hangers, this specific red model (EH0083BKA-RED) is designed for particular motorcycle models. Always check compatibility for your specific bike.

How do I clean and maintain the hanger?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners. Periodically check the tightness of mounting bolts.

Can I still carry a passenger with this installed?

No, this product is specifically designed to replace the pillion footrests, meaning the motorcycle will no longer be suitable for carrying a passenger.

What is the finish on the hanger?

The hanger features a durable powder-coated finish for protection against corrosion and wear.

Troubleshooting

Hanger does not fit correctly

Verify that you have selected the correct R&G hanger model for your specific motorcycle make and model. Double-check the installation steps and ensure no original parts are obstructing the fitment.

Exhaust is not securely mounted after installation

Ensure all mounting bolts for the hanger and the exhaust itself are tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications. Check for any misalignment or missing hardware.

Powder coating is chipping or peeling

This may indicate damage from impacts or exposure to harsh chemicals. Clean the affected area gently and consider a touch-up paint if necessary for minor damage. For significant damage, replacement might be considered.

Difficulty installing

Refer to the R&G installation instructions or consult a professional mechanic. Ensure you are using the correct tools and that the motorcycle is properly secured.
