DescriptionThe whole story▼
On a CB1000R a tip-over marks the parts you cannot cover with a decal. That is what the WAPHO407 is for: 200 g of nylon and Ergal standing between the axle of a CB1000R and the ground. It is offered in 2 colours: Black, Red. Nothing on the CB1000R has to be cut or drilled; the standard points carry the kit.
Key Features
- Coloured Ergal insert inside the WAPHO407 — light, strong, renewable on its own
- No type-approval paperwork supplied with the WAPHO407 — see the approval note below
- The WAPHO407 adds 200 g to a CB1000R and changes nothing about how it steers
- The LighTech logo is screen-printed into the WAPHO407 nylon, not stuck on afterwards
- Colour choice does not affect the fit of the WAPHO407 on the CB1000R
- The WAPHO407 costs less than the smallest part it defends on a CB1000R
How Axle Protection Works
Protection here is a matter of millimetres — the slider has to reach past the axle nut. Nylon on the outside of the WAPHO407 deforms under impact and springs back afterwards. The coloured insert is sold in pairs, so a damaged CB1000R is back to standard for small money.
Construction
Nylon forms the outside of the WAPHO407; the material is elastic enough to take repeated knocks. An Ergal core gives the WAPHO407 its structure while the nylon gives it its give. LighTech sells the coloured inner part in pairs, so the WAPHO407 is a serviceable assembly.
Fitment
Fitment is the Honda CB1000R, 2018 to 2026. Check the clearance to the surrounding bodywork once fitted and set it with the supplied spacers.
In the Workshop
The 200 g of the WAPHO407 arrive as one boxed kit for the CB1000R. Leave the final torque until the position is confirmed on the CB1000R. Black, Red: 2 finishes of the same WAPHO407, identical in fit on the CB1000R.
Scope of Delivery
LighTech packs the WAPHO407 with everything the CB1000R axles need and nothing they do not. The packaging lists the WAPHO407 reference, so a second order for the same CB1000R is unambiguous.
Type Approval
We list the WAPHO407 without an approval claim because LighTech supplies none. For a CB1000R with a registration plate, the fitted position is worth clarifying in advance. We would rather you asked first than discovered it at the inspection.
