Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Acerbis Vented Side Panels is straightforward, typically requiring only a standard T-handle or hex key set. To install, remove the existing bolts securing your current side covers, detach the old panel, and align the new Acerbis unit with the mounting points. Ensure all tabs are properly seated before tightening the bolts to avoid stress cracks in the plastic. For care, avoid using harsh industrial degreasers, as these can dull the factory-matched finish over time. Instead, use a mild motorcycle-safe plastic cleaner and a soft sponge. To maintain the shine, a light application of a silicone-based plastic restorer can help repel mud and grime during future rides.
