Protecting your motorcycle and safety while riding on the streets is crucial. A serious accident can result in significant financial loss, especially if there is extensive damage. If the damage is severe, the repair cost could be close to the original price of the motorcycle.
An engine guard can provide adequate protection for the engine. A motorcycle rider should also have an SW Motech skid plate that helps protect the underside of a motorcycle from road debris or rugged terrain. Aside from this, a skid plate protects downpipes, exhausts, engines, and oil pans while trail riding or traveling.
The SW-Motech 790 Adventure engine guard is big since it has a significant job. The SW-Motech790 Engine Guard, like other motorcycle engine guards, is designed to help in protecting the engine’s lower half, fuel tank, exhaust header, and catalytic converter.
The KTM 790 Adventure engine protection from SW-Motech comes at a high price. It is made primarily from one sheet of 4mm thick brushed aluminum to ensure maximum weight. With the heavy-duty sub-frame and mounting hardware, the engine guard is approximately 4.4kg, and the total weight of the engine guard is around 8 kg.
The engine guard does not directly mount to the engine but instead uses mounting brackets, which transfer impacts to 8 different points on the motorcycle engine. The engine guard also transfers 4 points to the existing front support rail, which helps significantly reduce the risk of damage to the lower half of the bike from impact.
Installing a motorcycle guard can take approximately one and a half hours. But with the help of an experienced mechanic, they will most likely be able complete the installation in less time.
