Crash guards



FAQ about Xpert Moto's Crash guards Collection:

What are crash guards and why are they essential for motorcycles?

Crash guards, also known as engine guards or crash bars, are protective metal bars mounted to the frame of a motorcycle to absorb and deflect impact in the event of a tip-over, slide, or low-speed crash. They help protect critical components like the engine, fuel tank, radiator, and fairings from serious damage. At Xpert Shop, we offer crash guards engineered for strength, ground clearance, and rider safety. Whether you're commuting, touring, or riding off-road, they give you peace of mind and potentially save thousands in repairs.

What types of crash guards does Xpert Moto Gear offer?

Xpert Moto Gear stocks full crash bar systems, lower engine guards, upper tank guards, frame-mounted sliders, and adventure-ready modular guards. We carry options for Harley-Davidson, BMW GS, Royal Enfield, KTM ADV, Honda Africa Twin, Yamaha Tenere, and many more. Our crash guards are made from heavy-duty steel tubing or lightweight aluminum, with powder-coated, anodized, or stainless finishes. Many models are compatible with skid plates and auxiliary lighting setups.

Do crash guards affect handling or cornering clearance?

No, our crash guards are carefully designed to maintain your motorcycle's handling characteristics and lean angles. Xpert Moto Gear guards mount securely to reinforced frame points and are built with road-tested geometry that won’t interfere with your turning radius or suspension travel. We prioritize balance between protection, weight, and ride dynamics, so you can ride hard without compromise.

Are Xpert Shop crash guards easy to install?

Yes. Most crash guards from Xpert Moto Gear come with all required mounting hardware and clear instructions for bolt-on installation. No welding or frame modification is needed. Depending on the model and bike, installation typically takes 30 to 90 minutes. For riders adding both lower and upper guards or crash plate combos, we provide full compatibility guidance.

What materials are used in Xpert Gear Shop’s crash guards?

We use high-tensile steel tubing, 6061 aluminum, and corrosion-resistant stainless steel to manufacture our crash guards. Welded joints are reinforced for impact absorption, and surface coatings are tested against UV, moisture, and road salt. You’ll find matte black, silver, and custom-color options to match your bike’s finish. Our materials are chosen for real durability, on highways, dirt tracks, or anywhere in between.
