Product Information
Full details
The Polisport Bullit Wrap Hand Guards in Red are designed for off-road riders seeking enhanced protection for their hands and motorcycle's master cylinder. Their durable plastic bar construction offers a lighter alternative to aluminum-barred handguards, providing robust defense against debris and impacts. While offering excellent airflow with removable vent covers, a potential limitation is that they are primarily designed for specific handlebar sizes, requiring careful measurement before purchase.

FAQs
Are these handguards suitable for street bikes?
The Polisport Bullit Wrap Hand Guards are primarily designed for off-road motorcycles. While they might fit some street bike handlebars, their shape and intended use are optimized for off-road conditions.
What is the main advantage of plastic bars over aluminum?
The primary advantage is weight. Plastic bar handguards are significantly lighter than those with aluminum bars, offering a more minimalist feel while still providing good protection.
How do I choose the correct color?
You can choose any of the nine available colors to best match your motorcycle's existing color scheme or your personal preference.
Can I install these without removing my grips?
Depending on your grip type and how they are secured, it may be possible. However, for the most secure and accurate installation, it is recommended to remove the grips and throttle tube to properly mount the handguard clamps.
How durable are the plastic bars against impacts?
The plastic used is engineered for durability and resistance to impacts common in off-road riding. While very resilient, extreme impacts might cause damage, as with any plastic component.
Do these handguards come as a pair?
Yes, the Polisport Bullit Wrap Hand Guards are sold as a pair, including all necessary mounting hardware for installation on both sides of the handlebars.
Troubleshooting
Handguards do not fit handlebars
Double-check your handlebar's outer and inner diameter measurements. Ensure they fall within the specified 22-28mm outer and 13-18mm inner range. If measurements are correct, confirm you are using the correct mounting hardware for your handlebar type.
Handguards obstruct controls
Loosen the mounting hardware slightly and reposition the handguards. Adjust the angle and position to ensure clear operation of the throttle, brake lever, and clutch lever. Retighten hardware once properly aligned.
Ventilation covers are difficult to remove
Gently apply even pressure around the edges of the cover. If stiff, use a small amount of lubricant around the seam and try again. Ensure no debris is lodged in the cover's mounting points.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure your handlebars measure between 22-28mm in outer diameter and 13-18mm in inner diameter. Loosen handlebar clamp bolts, slide the handguard mounting bracket onto the handlebar, and then tighten the clamp bolts securely. Mount the handguard itself onto the bracket and fasten it. Adjust positioning as needed before final tightening.
Compatibility: These handguards are designed for handlebars with 22-28mm outer diameter and 13-18mm inner diameter. They are compatible with most standard dirt bikes, enduro bikes, and dual-sport motorcycles. Verify your handlebar dimensions before purchasing.
Care: Clean the handguards regularly with a mild soap and water solution using a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the plastic. Periodically check that all mounting hardware is secure.
