Product Information

Full details

The Acerbis Fork Guard Covers are designed for off-road enthusiasts and enduro riders seeking to enhance both the protection and the visual appeal of their motorcycle's front suspension. These durable guards excel at shielding fork tubes from dust, mud, and trail debris, which helps prevent premature wear and seal damage. While they offer significant functional benefits and a custom look, users should ensure compatibility with their specific motorcycle model's fork diameter and mounting points prior to purchase.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these guards sold as a pair?

Yes, the Acerbis Fork Guard Covers are typically sold as a set to cover both sides of the front forks.

Can I use these on a street bike?

These are specifically designed for off-road and enduro motorcycles; they may not fit standard street bike fork configurations.

How do I clean the blue plastic?

Use a soft cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid pressure washers held too close to the plastic to prevent surface scratching.

Will these protect my forks from large rocks?

They provide significant impact resistance against trail debris, but they are primarily designed to shield the seals and sliders from dirt and mud.

What should I do if the color starts to fade?

While the material is durable, sun exposure is inevitable. You can use plastic restorer sprays designed for off-road fairings to bring back the shine.

Troubleshooting

Guard rattling or loose fit

Check that all mounting bolts are tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque and ensure no washers are missing.

Difficulty aligning bolt holes

Loosen all mounting points slightly to allow for minor adjustments, align all holes, and then tighten in a cross pattern.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Protects fork seals from premature wear
  • Lightweight construction reduces unsprung weight
  • Easy to clean after muddy riding conditions
  • Impact-resistant plastic composition
  • Enhances the visual styling of the bike

Cons

  • Requires model-specific compatibility check
  • Color may fade with prolonged exposure to harsh UV rays
  • Not compatible with all fork types without potential modification

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Acerbis Fork Guard Covers typically involves removing the existing bolts on your fork guards and securing the new units in place. Ensure that your motorbike's mounting brackets are aligned correctly before tightening the fasteners, but avoid overtightening to prevent cracking the plastic.

For compatibility, verify your motorbike model and year against the part number 0022288.040 to ensure the bolt hole pattern matches. Care is simple: rinse the guards with low-pressure water and a mild soap after riding. Avoid using harsh chemical degreasers or abrasive sponges, as these can dull the finish of the blue plastic over time.
