Precision-crafted from autoclave-cured carbon fibre, the LighTech CARK9618 pick-up cover brings genuine racing-grade material quality to the Kawasaki ZX-10R and ZX-10RR. Where stock plastic falls short on both protection and aesthetics, this component delivers a meaningful upgrade — shielding the sensitive pick-up unit from road debris, stones and contamination while trimming unnecessary mass from the chassis.
Key Features
- Autoclave-processed carbon fibre construction for an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio far beyond standard plastic alternatives
- High-gloss lacquered finish provides a rich, deep weave appearance that complements factory race bodywork
- Precision fit engineered specifically for the Kawasaki ZX-10R and ZX-10RR — no trimming, no modification required
- Protects the pick-up unit from stones, grit, mud and mechanical impacts on both road and track
- Installs using the supplied mounting hardware or silicone adhesive points for a clean, tool-minimal fitment
- Low maintenance — clean with a pH-neutral cleaner to preserve the lacquer and weave long-term
Build Quality and Materials
LighTech manufactures this cover using the same autoclave carbon fibre process found in MotoGP and Superbike paddock components. Layers of woven carbon are laid up and cured under controlled heat and pressure, eliminating voids and producing a component with consistent density throughout. The result is a cover that is noticeably lighter than its OEM equivalent yet structurally rigid enough to absorb the kind of low-speed impacts and debris strikes that a track or aggressive road ride inevitably generates. The gloss topcoat is applied as a final protective layer, locking in the weave and resisting UV degradation over time.
Protection and Performance
The pick-up sensor is a critical piece of engine management electronics on the ZX-10R platform. Leaving it exposed to debris and contamination carries real risk, particularly during track days where loose stones and rubber marbles are common hazards. The CARK9618 wraps this component in a rigid carbon shell, absorbing and deflecting impacts before they reach the sensor housing. The weight saving over stock contributes to the overall mass reduction that serious ZX-10R owners pursue as part of a wider lightweight build.
Fitment and Compatibility
This carbon pick-up cover is designed to fit the following motorcycles:
- Kawasaki ZX-10R — 2011 to 2026
- Kawasaki ZX-10RR — 2011 to 2026
Direct OEM-style fitment with no modifications required. Compatible with both road-registered machines and dedicated track builds.
