FAQs

Are these crash protectors universal or model-specific?

R&G Crash Protectors are designed to be model-specific to ensure proper fitment and optimal protection. You must verify compatibility with your motorcycle's exact year, make, and model.

What material are the Aero Bobbins made from?

The Aero Bobbins are typically made from a durable, impact-resistant material designed to withstand abrasion and absorb impact energy.

What does 'de-embrittled' mean for the steel bolts?

De-embrittled steel bolts are treated to bend on impact rather than snap. This ensures the protector remains attached and functional even under significant stress, preventing catastrophic failure.

Do I need to drill holes in my motorcycle fairings?

This depends on the specific motorcycle model. Some installations may require minor modifications like drilling, while others mount to existing points. Always check the installation guide for your specific model.

How often should I inspect my crash protectors?

It is recommended to inspect your crash protectors regularly, especially before and after long rides or if you have experienced any minor incidents. Check for tightness and any signs of wear or damage.

Can these protectors prevent all damage in a crash?

While R&G Crash Protectors significantly reduce the risk of damage to key components, they cannot guarantee complete protection in all types of accidents. Their primary function is to minimize damage to specific vulnerable parts.

Where can I find installation instructions?

Installation instructions are typically provided with the product. You can also often find model-specific guides and videos on the R&G website or through authorized dealers.

Troubleshooting

Crash protector appears loose after installation.

Re-check all mounting bolts and ensure they are tightened to the correct torque specification as per the installation guide. If vibration is a persistent issue, consider using a thread-locking compound (follow product instructions carefully).

Damage to the Aero Bobbin after a minor drop.

Inspect the mounting bolt and surrounding motorcycle components for any secondary damage. Replace the Aero Bobbin if it shows significant signs of wear or cracking. The bobbins are designed to be sacrificial and are replaceable.

Difficulty aligning mounting holes during installation.

Loosen the bolts slightly on all mounting points before fully tightening. Ensure no other components are obstructing the installation. Consult the specific installation instructions for your motorcycle model.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation of R&G Crash Protectors typically involves mounting them to existing points on the motorcycle's frame or engine. Specific mounting brackets and hardware are usually included. Due to the critical nature of these components, it is highly recommended to consult your motorcycle's service manual or seek professional installation if you are not experienced with motorcycle mechanics. Incorrect installation can lead to ineffective protection or damage.

Compatibility: These crash protectors are designed for specific motorcycle makes and models. Always verify the product's compatibility with your exact motorcycle year, make, and model before purchase. The product code `CP0277BL` indicates a specific fitment, which should be cross-referenced with R&G's official compatibility list.

Care: Clean the crash protectors with a mild soap and water solution using a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the material. Periodically inspect the protectors and bolts for any signs of wear, damage, or loosening, especially after a significant event. Ensure bolts remain tightened to the manufacturer's specifications.
