Crash Guard with 4 Sliders For Yamaha FZS

Description

Key Features

• Four‐Slider Protection: Two sliders on each side for greater coverage — guard the engine case, tank sides and fairings during a tip-over or low-speed crash. (This design is highlighted in similar units tailored for FZS models.)

• Heavy Gauge Construction: Built from robust metal tubing (often mild steel CR tubes of ~22.2 mm diameter and ~2mm wall thickness or equivalent) for strength, rigidity and durability,

• Premium Finish: MIG/TIG welded with precision; surface is grit-blasted before powder coating for improved corrosion and wear resistance.

• Precision Fitment: Made to mount securely to factory or dedicated mounting points of the FZS model to ensure correct clearance and minimal interference with service access.

• Engine/Tank Defence: In addition to acting as a leg-guard, this unit is designed to shield the engine side-covers, clutch side, as well as lower fairings from abrasions and dents.

• Enhanced Aesthetics: While adding function, the guard also complements the overall look of the bike — rugged, purposeful, and well-integrated.

Benefits

• Peace of Mind: Should your bike tip over or you brush against obstacles, the crash guard with sliders helps absorb the impact and reduce damage to engine covers or expensive body panels.

• Improved Resale Value: Less visible damage means fewer repair bills and better condition long-term.

• Minimal Ride Impact: With proper mounting and weight kept in check, the ride handling and suspension behaviour remain largely unaffected.

• Durable Coatings: Superior finish ensures long-term durability in Indian riding conditions (monsoon, dust, grime).

Fitment & Installation Notes

• Designed specifically for Yamaha FZS / FZ variants (check model year compatibility — e.g., V3/V4 or FZS 25 versions).

• Requires basic tools (typically Allen keys and spanners) and proper torqueing of bolts. Some sources suggest engine-stud or frame-mount bolts for secure fitting.

• It’s advisable to install this guard at a workshop if you’re not familiar with engine mount points and torque specifications.

• After installation, verify clearances (especially for fairings, exhaust bends and foot-peg area) and ensure the sliders don’t interfere with service points.

Technical Specification (Approximate / Typical)

• Material: Mild Steel Tubing (CR / MS) with ~2mm wall thickness.

• Finish: Powder Coated (not just spray paint) for long-lasting finish.

• Sliders: Four high-quality nylon or ABS sliders, placed two each side.

• Fitment Points: 3-point mount per side (common in aftermarket units) for secure anchoring.

• Weight: Varies by model, but typical heavy quality guards weigh in the ~4-6 kg range.

Good to know / Buyer Tips

• Double-check model year and variant compatibility (for example FZS V3 vs V4 vs FZS 25) before ordering.

• Make sure all mounting hardware (bolts & nuts) is either included or use high quality grade bolts (e.g., 12.9 grade) to ensure safety.

• After installation, inspect after the first ride for any loose bolts or rubbing points.

• If you often ride in wet or off-road conditions: periodically inspect the mounting areas and sliders for wear or stress.

• Make sure the sliders have contact points properly placed — they should contact the ground first, not fairings or exhaust in a fall.
