FAQs

What material are the Apico Fork Guards made from?

These fork guards are constructed from durable ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) plastic, known for its impact resistance.

Are these guards compatible with all Beta Evo models?

No, these specific guards are designed for Beta Evo 80 models from 2004 to 2025 that are equipped with 33mm diameter front forks.

What is the primary benefit of installing these guards?

Their main purpose is to protect the lower fork legs from damage caused by rocks, mud, and other trail debris, thereby extending the life of your suspension components.

What color is the finish?

The guards come in a 'Factory Black' finish, designed to match the original aesthetics of the motorcycle.

How difficult is the installation process?

Installation is generally straightforward and can often be done with basic tools. It typically involves removing old guards and securing the new ones with provided or existing fasteners.

Can I use these guards on forks other than 33mm?

No, these guards are specifically molded for 33mm fork diameters. Using them on forks of a different size may result in a poor fit or inadequate protection.

How should I clean and maintain the fork guards?

Clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the plastic or finish.

Troubleshooting

Guards do not fit properly

Confirm that your motorcycle is a Beta Evo 80 (2004-2025) with 33mm forks. Ensure no debris is obstructing the mounting points. Minor adjustments to the guard or fasteners may be needed for a perfect fit on some specific sub-models.

Guards feel loose after installation

Re-check the tightness of all fasteners (zip ties, bolts, etc.). Ensure they are securely fastened without being overtightened to the point of damaging the plastic. Verify that the guard is correctly seated on the fork leg.

Plastic shows signs of cracking

Inspect for impact points. While durable, extreme impacts can cause cracks. Replace the guard if any structural cracks are found to ensure continued protection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility Check:

Before installation, verify that your motorcycle is a Beta Evo 80 model manufactured between 2004 and 2025 and features 33mm diameter front forks. The manufacturer part number for this specific guard is TBCB16A-FB.

Installation:

  1. Ensure the motorcycle is stable and the front wheel is off the ground, if possible, to relieve pressure on the forks.
  2. Carefully remove any existing fork guards.
  3. Position the new Apico Fork Guards Lower onto the lower fork legs, aligning mounting points.
  4. Secure the guards using the appropriate fasteners (often zip ties or pre-existing mounting points depending on the bike's original setup). Ensure they are snug but do not overtighten, which could damage the plastic.
  5. Double-check that the guards are firmly attached and do not obstruct suspension movement.

Care:

Clean the fork guards regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the ABS plastic and the finish. Inspect the guards periodically for cracks or damage, replacing them if compromised to maintain optimal protection.
