Optimal protection for the motorcycle

For most bikers the motorcycle is more than just a means of locomotion. It is the epitome of freedom and should definitely underline your own personality. Therefore it is not surprising that many bikers care a lot about their bike and want to protect it from damage in case of an accident. A fall protection is an adequate possibility.

Here it is important to distinguish between pads that only serve an optical enhancement and those products that offer you a real protection. How extensive the technical benefits of these accessories are in reality, depends strongly on the respective product and on the type of vehicle concerned.

If a model with a very wide frame only has a harmless skid, this can already cause expensive damage. Here the use of crash pads is sensible. For motorcycles with a protruding engine, for example a boxer engine, a massive crash bar is probably the better option, depending on the intended use. If you would like to ride your machine off the asphalt tracks, additional crash protectors are a useful addition.

If the bike slips over the road after a fall, that alone is annoying enough. If an obstacle in the form of a manhole cover or similar comes into play, it becomes really tricky. There is a possibility that the protector will get stuck instead of sliding over it.

It looks different on the race track. Manhole covers or other obstacles are usually not encountered here. There, their use makes sense in any case. Here it is important that the pads "sacrifice" themselves in the case of a crash to dissipate the resulting energies and forces. In this way, sensitive parts such as engine covers or radiators can be well protected. But we do not want to raise false expectations: Even though engine parts etc. enjoy the protection of the pads, the fairing is affected in most cases despite the use of pads.

Faster toppled over than caught

Almost every motorcyclist has had the experience at least once: Even the lightest machine can fall over faster than it can be caught. And even if the faithful companion weighs only a little over 200 kg, from a certain inclination the weight becomes noticeable with its full extent: The machine is unstoppable, it falls over. Fall protectors absorb the energy generated and dissipate it to prevent or reduce damage.

Natural ones also play an important role in the choice of fall pads, including aesthetic aspects. Our products are characterised by a puristic and clean design. In elegant black, an engine guard or a DPM crash pad fits almost invisibly into the overall picture. High-quality materials such as aluminium not only ensure the durability of the accessories, but also effectively dissipate the energy generated by the fall.
