FAQs

What material are these swingarm protectors made from?

They are made from Polisport's proprietary DGP (Durable Gloss Polypropylene) with a hard shell constructed from PA6 (polyamide) and ABS.

Do these protectors fit all KTM and Husqvarna models?

This specific model is designed for KTM EXC/EXC-F 2012-2023. Installation on some KTM and Husqvarna models requires removing the original chain protection. Please verify compatibility for your specific model.

How do I clean the swingarm protectors?

Clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners to preserve the gloss finish. Regular cleaning is recommended, especially after off-road use.

What is included in the kit?

The kit includes a pair of swingarm protectors, strong plastic cable ties for mounting, and two stripes of adhesive foam for vibration dampening.

Will these protectors affect my bike's performance?

No, the protectors are designed to be lightweight and do not negatively impact the bike's performance. Their purpose is solely protection.

How often should I remove the protectors for cleaning?

It is advisable to remove them for thorough cleaning periodically, especially after riding in wet or muddy conditions, to ensure no dirt or debris is trapped between the protector and the swingarm.

Can I install these myself?

Yes, the installation is designed to be easy and intuitive. All necessary hardware is included, and the process involves simple attachment with cable ties.

Troubleshooting

Protector does not fit securely

Ensure the swingarm is clean and free of debris. Reapply adhesive foam strips if they have lost adhesion. Check that the correct protector model for your bike is being used.

Excessive vibration or noise

Verify that the adhesive foam strips are correctly applied and making full contact. Ensure all cable ties are tightened appropriately.

Difficulty installing on KTM/Husqvarna

Confirm that the original chain protection has been fully removed as per the instructions.

Plastic is scratched or damaged

Clean the area gently with a soft cloth and mild soap. Deep scratches may be irreversible, but the protector's function remains intact.
