This one is different: it fits the standard Indian headers as well. That makes it the only part in this section anybody can buy for a completely unmodified motorcycle and have it work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits Akrapovic headers and Indian's own alike\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e50 grams against the standard shield's 130\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon fibre, replacing the factory part directly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTen minutes to fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers the FTR 1200 and FTR 1200 S for 2019 and 2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Part That Does Not Need a System\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAkrapovic states it plainly: this shield can be used on Akrapovic or stock headers. Nearly every other accessory in the range assumes an Akrapovic exhaust is already fitted, and this one does not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor an FTR owner who likes the standard exhaust and simply wants the carbon look on the header, that makes it a genuinely standalone purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eEighty Grams\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e130 g standard down to 50, which is a 62 per cent saving on a part that weighs less than a mobile phone. Nobody will feel it and nobody should pretend otherwise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reason to fit it is what it looks like on an FTR. Indian styled the bike around a flat-track racer, and the header shield sits high on the right where it is impossible to miss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTen Minutes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe quickest fitting time of anything Akrapovic lists. The shield unbolts from the header and the new one goes back on the same mounts. No tools beyond a set of allen keys and no adjustment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCarbon on a Header, Not a Silencer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis shield sits on the header rather than on the muffler, which is a hotter place to put composite material. The resin systems Akrapovic uses for header shields are chosen for that, and it is why a header shield costs more than a silencer shield of similar size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat It Is Protecting\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the FTR the header runs up the right side of the engine and past the rider's shin. The standard shield is there because without it a boot resting in the natural position would be against hot steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA carbon replacement has to do that job as well as the metal one did, which is why this is a structural composite part rather than a cosmetic cover clipped over the original.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo Model Years\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe FTR 1200 and FTR 1200 S for 2019 and 2020. Indian revised the machine for 2021 with different bodywork and exhaust routing, and later bikes need a different part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Weave Is Visible Here\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a shield mounted this high and this far outboard, the carbon is a styling element whether the buyer wants it to be or not. Akrapovic lays the cloth so the pattern runs along the header rather than across it, which is a decision somebody made rather than an accident of the moulding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat It Pairs With\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the motorcycle already wears the Akrapovic optional header or link pipe for the FTR, this shield completes the visual set. If not, it works on its own — which is the whole point of the sentence at the top of this page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot applicable. A heat shield is neither an emissions nor a noise part, and none of the approval rules attach to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: P-HSIN12E1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEAN: 3831113583053\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBikes covered: Indian FTR 1200 and FTR 1200 S, 2019 and 2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: heat shield, carbon fibre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 50 g against 130 g standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatibility: Akrapovic headers and Indian standard headers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorkshop time: about ten minutes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproval: none applies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Akrapovic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53630890279178,"sku":"P-HSIN12E1","price":17900.0,"currency_code":"DZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/01_a0bcaa84-527f-4fb2-b227-58a3c8a11e99.png?v=1788600004","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-dz\/products\/akrapovic-heat-shield-carbon-indian-ftr-1200-p-hsin12e1","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
