FAQs
What material is the Apico Rear Brake Disc Guard made from?
The guard is CNC-machined from high-strength 6061-T6 alloy, with an integrated plastic under-plate for deflecting debris.
Which motorcycle brands and models is this guard compatible with?
It is designed for KTM, Husqvarna, and Gas Gas models from 2004 to 2023, specifically those with rear Brembo brakes.
Does the guard come with installation hardware?
Yes, the guard includes all necessary fixing bolts for straightforward mounting to the caliper carrier.
How should I clean and maintain the disc guard?
Clean with water and mild detergent using a soft cloth or brush. Avoid abrasive cleaners and high-pressure washing.
What is the purpose of the plastic under-plate?
The integrated plastic under-plate is designed to deflect stones and other debris away from the brake disc, providing an extra layer of protection.
Is the color finish durable?
The guard is finished in striking manufacturer colors. While generally durable, it can be scratched or chipped with significant impacts, consistent with off-road use.
Can this guard improve my braking performance?

Troubleshooting
Guard does not fit properly
Double-check that your motorcycle model and year are listed in the product's compatibility range. Ensure you are attempting to mount it to the correct caliper carrier.
Mounting bolts are difficult to install
Verify that no debris is present in the mounting holes on the caliper carrier. Ensure you are using the correct bolts provided with the kit.
Plastic under-plate shows signs of wear
This is normal with extensive use, especially in abrasive conditions. The plastic is designed to be sacrificial and protect the alloy guard and the brake disc. It can be replaced if necessary, though replacement parts may not be readily available.
Guard makes noise during operation
Ensure all mounting bolts are securely tightened. Check for any interference with other parts of the motorcycle or wheel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This disc guard is designed for specific rear Brembo caliper carriers on KTM, Husqvarna, and Gas Gas models manufactured between 2004 and 2023. Always verify your motorcycle's model year and brake system compatibility before purchase.
Setup: Installation is designed to be straightforward. The guard typically mounts directly to the caliper carrier using the supplied fixing bolts. Ensure the area is clean before mounting. Use appropriate tools (e.g., socket wrench, torque wrench if specified by the manufacturer) to secure the guard firmly. Overtightening bolts can damage the components, so adhere to torque specifications if available.
Care: To maintain the appearance and function of the guard, clean it regularly with water and a mild detergent. A soft brush can be used for stubborn dirt. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or high-pressure washers directly on the guard or its components, as this could damage the finish or compromise the plastic under-plate. Periodically check that all mounting bolts remain tight.
