FAQs
Are these fork covers compatible with all motorcycle brands?
No, these are model-specific. Always check your motorcycle manual or the part number compatibility list before purchase.
Do I need special tools to install these?
Generally, basic hand tools are sufficient to remove existing guards and secure the Acerbis covers.
Can these covers be painted?
While technically possible, painting is not recommended as it may flake off due to the flexible nature of the material.
How often should I remove them for cleaning?
It is recommended to remove and clean them after any heavy off-road or mud-riding session to prevent grit buildup.
Does the yellow color fade?
Like most plastics exposed to extreme sunlight, some minor fading may occur over years of use, but the material retains its structural integrity.
Troubleshooting
Cover fits loosely or rattles
Verify that the specific fork diameter matches the part specifications and ensure all mounting bolts are tightened to factory torque settings.
Accumulation of dirt behind the cover
Remove the covers periodically to clean the inner surface and the fork tube to prevent abrasive debris buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Acerbis Fork Covers is straightforward but requires attention to detail. Ensure the fork surfaces are completely clean and dry before sliding the covers into place to prevent scratching the inner tube finish. If the fit is tight, ensure the mounting points are aligned correctly with the OEM brackets to avoid binding.
For maintenance, use mild soap and water to wash the exterior of the covers. Avoid high-pressure washers directly at the seal junction, as this can force moisture underneath the covers. Periodically inspect the mounting hardware to ensure vibrations from the engine have not loosened the connection points.
