Product Information
Full details
The Acerbis MX Uniko Handguards are designed for off-road motorcyclists who require reliable, lightweight protection against roost, debris, and trail obstacles. These handguards provide a crucial shield for your hands and control levers while maintaining a minimalist, aerodynamic profile. While they offer excellent deflection against environmental hazards, riders should note that they are constructed primarily for debris protection rather than heavy-duty impact resistance during high-speed crashes.

FAQs
Are these handguards compatible with fat bars?
These are designed for standard handlebars; additional adapters may be required for oversized or 'fat' bar configurations.
Do these provide protection during a direct motorcycle crash?
These are intended to deflect roost and trail debris. They are not designed to withstand high-impact collisions or act as a roll-cage for the levers.
Can I replace the mounting hardware separately?
Yes, replacement mounting hardware can generally be sourced through Acerbis distributors if original components are lost or damaged.
How do I clean the white plastic finish?
Use a soft cloth with mild detergent. For stubborn mud or debris stains, a plastic-safe cleaner may be used.
Are these suitable for adventure bikes?
While they fit standard bars, they are designed for MX/Off-road use and may offer less wind/weather coverage than dedicated adventure-touring handguards.
Troubleshooting
Handguard rotates on the handlebar during use
Check that the mounting bracket bolts are tightened securely and ensure the handlebar surface is clean and free of grease before mounting.
Interference with clutch or brake levers
Adjust the angle of the mounting bracket or slide the guard slightly outboard along the handlebar until the lever clears the plastic shell.
Pros and Cons

- Easy to install on most standard handlebar configurations
- Provides essential protection against brush and trail debris
- Minimalist aesthetic complements the bike's factory look
Cons
- Primarily for debris protection; not a structural handguard
- White plastic may show stains more easily than darker colors

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward and intended for standard-diameter handlebars. Begin by positioning the nylon brackets at the desired angle on the bar to ensure full clearance for your brake and clutch levers. Use the provided threaded brass bolts to secure the handguard panels to the mounting brackets. Ensure all fasteners are tightened sufficiently to prevent rotation under heavy vibration, but avoid over-tightening the nylon components. To maintain the appearance and structural integrity of the guards, clean them after rides using mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents that could degrade the plastic finish over time.
