DescriptionThe whole story▼

A naked Z900 that falls over lands on its engine covers, handlebar and frame, with nothing in between. The Gilles IP-KA33-B kit changes that by placing two crash pads on the frame, one on each side. Their impact bodies are made of an abrasion-resistant special plastic with a progressive inlay.

Key Features

  • Set for the left and right side, black
  • Patented IP crash pads with a progressive impact inlay
  • Impact bodies in a special, abrasion-resistant plastic
  • Vehicle-specific kit with flexible frame attachment
  • Lower risk of frame and engine damage in a fall
  • No registration required, according to Gilles

ZR900B and ZR900V

Gilles lists the Z900 of 2017 to 2020 and of 2025. The years 2021 to 2024 are not named for this kit.

Road Approval

For the Kawasaki Z900, Gilles states that no approval is necessary. Fit it, check it, ride; nothing has to be entered in the vehicle documents.

Scope of Delivery

A left and a right IP crash pad with the mounting kit for this motorcycle.

Fitting

Fit one side at a time, so the engine mount or frame bolt that the kit uses is never loose on both sides at once. Tighten to the specified torque, check the clearance to fairing and exhaust, and turn the handlebar from lock to lock to make sure nothing interferes. After a fall, inspect the pads and the brackets even if the damage looks small.
