Acerbis handguards are widely used for motocross, enduro, and adventure riding, offering a range of styles from lightweight open designs to heavy-duty full-wrap protection. They are known for using dual-injection molding, w
Key Features and Construction
- Materials: Many premium models utilize a combination of an alloy steel or aluminum inner bar for structural integrity and high-impact resistant thermoplastic (like polypropylene) for the outer shield.
- Mounting Systems: Most kits are “universal” and fit handlebars with diameters between 22mm and 28mm (7/8″ to 1 1/8″). They often use anticorodal aluminum clamps and steel expander bolts to prevent the guard from rotating during an impact.
- Protection Benefits: Beyond impact protection, they reduce rider fatigue by blocking cold wind and rain. Some models, like the Acerbis K-Future, mount directly to brake and clutch pumps to save space on the handlebars.
- Customization: Guards come in a wide array of colors, including black, white, red, blue, and fluorescent yellow, to match specific bike aesthetics.
Maintenance and Installation
- Ease of Installation: While many are designed for a straightforward DIY setup, some motorcycle models may require additional mounting kits. It is recommended to use Loctite on all bolts to ensure they do not vibrate loose.
- Replaceable Parts: Many Acerbis models allow for individual replacement of the plastic shields or bars if they become damaged, extending the life of the overall product.
