Bike
Design Bodywork Mod-Free Crash
Protectors
The problem; “I want crash
protectors, but I don’t
want to cut holes in the bodywork”
Now HPS have the answer; “Bike
Design” crash protectors
need no mods to your bodywork!
Individually designed and manufactured
kits with tough hardware for many
bikes - which completely eliminate
the need for unsightly holes in
bodywork. In addition, Race Protectors
(which do require bodywork mods)
are also available.
What is the difference
between Bike Design Crash Protectors
and Bike Design Race Protectors?
Because they provide a secure
locating point, most crash protector
kits are fixed directly onto a
bike’s engine mounts. On
many bikes, however, these points
are concealed by the bike’s
bodywork meaning that it’s
necessary to either cut bodywork
holes to access the engine mounts,
or find another solution…
Bike Design Crash Protectors are
kits that - where necessary -
have special brackets which locate
behind your bike’s bodywork
to provide secure mounting points
for the crash bobbins - without
any modification to the panels.
No holes have to be drilled and
no cutting is involved whatsoever
and, because of this, your bike’s
value is protected for resale.
In addition, Bike Design offer
Race Protector crash kits - which
always mount directly to the engine
mounts - and are for those who
don’t mind cutting holes
in their bike’s bodywork
(e.g. if you have aftermarket
fairings on a race or track-only
bike).
What else is special about
Bike Designs kits?
| • |
Each
crash protection kit consists
of high quality CNC machined
components and mounting
brackets where necessary |
| |
|
| • |
To
achieve high quality finish,
all mounting brackets are
manufactured from stainless
steel and laser cut (although
aluminium brackets may reduce
the weight, they are less
rigid than steel of the
same size where space is
at a premium) |
| |
|
| • |
The
protectors have machined
aluminium bases which are
tailor-made for each specific
bike to provide the maximum
support to the special bobbin
material |
| |
|
| • |
The
bobbins are CNC turned from
Ertacetal (as opposed to
Nylon or Teflon, which most
kits use), a carefully developed
synthetic material with
a set of special and ideal
properties: |
| |
-
Ertacetal has high oil content
to resist “snagging”
and friction melting
against the road
surface
- Ertacetal is not brittle
to avoid shattering in high
impact situations
- Ertacetal has a smooth
and attractive surface finish
after machining |
| |
|
| • |
Only
high-tensile bolts are used
(12.9 grade wherever over
60mm length) which are zinc
plated to minimise corrosion |
| |
|
| • |
By
using these components Bike
Design are able to provide
extremely light mounting
kits - e.g. a Yamaha YZF-R1
kit weighs less than 1,000
grams - with high rigidity |
| |
|
| • |
Simply
said, Bike Design protection
looks neat, has proven its
worth in races everywhere
- including the World Supersport
Championship - and are an
essential add-on for regular
track-day addicts, sporting
or touring riders and professional
racers! |
