DescriptionThe whole story▼

Dropping a DORSODURO 900 off the side stand costs more than it should. That is what the WAPAP401 is for: 200 g of nylon and Ergal standing between the axle of a DORSODURO 900 and the ground. It is offered in 4 colours: Black, Gold, Red, Silver. LighTech supplies it for the DORSODURO 900 complete, so no separate hardware order is needed.

Key Features

  • Fitting the WAPAP401 to a DORSODURO 900 is measured in minutes, not hours
  • Coloured Ergal insert inside the WAPAP401 — light, strong, renewable on its own
  • At 200 g the WAPAP401 is the cheapest thing on the DORSODURO 900 to sacrifice
  • The WAPAP401 stands proud of the axle nut, which is the whole mechanism
  • LighTech part number WAPAP401, catalogued for the Aprilia DORSODURO 900
  • Front and rear of the DORSODURO 900 are both covered by the single WAPAP401 kit
  • Ergal is the alloy family LighTech also uses for its DORSODURO 900 rearsets

Construction and Material Quality

Nylon forms the outside of the WAPAP401; the material is elastic enough to take repeated knocks. An Ergal core gives the WAPAP401 its structure while the nylon gives it its give. LighTech sells the coloured inner part in pairs, so the WAPAP401 is a serviceable assembly.

How Axle Protection Works

An axle protector works by standing further out than the part it defends. LighTech's answer on the WAPAP401 is a two-material build: nylon that flexes, Ergal that holds. After contact the nylon shows it and the Ergal underneath usually does not.

Fitment

LighTech's fitment for the WAPAP401 is the Aprilia DORSODURO 900 across 2018 to 2021. It uses the mounting points the DORSODURO 900 already carries, so nothing is drilled or fabricated.

Scope of Delivery

The WAPAP401 ships as a complete axle set for the DORSODURO 900: shells, inserts and the bolts that hold them. LighTech keeps the WAPAP401 in its spare parts programme rather than treating it as disposable.

Installation

Nothing beyond basic workshop tools is needed to fit the WAPAP401 to a DORSODURO 900. Check the clearance to DORSODURO 900 bodywork once fitted — spacers are included precisely for that. The WAPAP401 comes in 4 finishes — Black, Gold, Red, Silver — and the colour makes no difference to the fit on the DORSODURO 900.

Approval and Road Use

We list the WAPAP401 without an approval claim because LighTech supplies none. A protector fitted outside the outline of the DORSODURO 900 is something a German inspector may question. For a track-only DORSODURO 900 there is nothing to clarify.
