Many owners keep riding it deep into autumn and start again early in spring, when mornings are cold and roads often damp. The first stretch of such a ride, before the tyres have any warmth in them, is when a lot of gentle slides happen. Accossato offers its PF057 front axle sliders for the R 1200 RS of 2015 to 2019, two protectors in black that combine aluminium with plastic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront axle sliders listed for the BMW R 1200 RS, 2015 to 2019\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccossato part PF057 in black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminium and plastic construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo pieces per pack, left and right\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpacers, screws and remaining mounting parts included, according to Accossato\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeant to make first contact in a slide and help limit damage at the fork ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied for track and competition use; no German ABE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the PF057, Accossato names two materials, aluminium and plastic, and a black finish that suits the sporting look of the RS without shouting about it. With one protector for each side, the pack contains two. In the same package, the maker says, you will find the spacers, the screws and any other part that fitting needs, so the job can be done in one session. Accossato's text leaves out how the pair is positioned on the R 1200 RS, which is why we add no mounting details of our own; the application list remains the reference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCold Tyres on a Wet Morning\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a damp autumn morning the road looks the same as in summer, but it behaves differently. Tyres wheeled out of a cold garage offer little grip until they have warmed through, fallen leaves gather along the edge of country lanes, and the first roundabout of the day may still carry a film of diesel from the night's lorries. A slide at that moment is usually slow and undramatic, yet the R 1200 RS still ends up on its side, scraping along for a few metres, with fairing, bar ends and lower fork meeting the road. Front axle sliders are one way of giving the fork ends a sacrificial layer. Ride the first miles gently, keep lean angles modest until the tyres come up to temperature and treat painted markings as if they were ice. If you do go down, look over the sliders, the fork and the axle before you ride home, and replace any protector that has been worn through.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe list names the R 1200 RS from 2015 to 2019 for this part. Under the same code, Inter-Pace also shows the R 1200 R, the R 1250 RS and the S 1000 XR. Fit the pair according to the workshop manual, including its tightening values, then spin the front wheel and swing the handlebar fully in both directions: the protectors must stay clear of the brake calipers, the mudguard and the rim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeither a German ABE nor any test mark has been documented for these protectors, so we offer them for the racetrack and competition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eScope of Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA pair of black PF057 front axle sliders with the spacers, screws and fitting parts from Accossato.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Front axle sliders (fork protection)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: PF057\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Aluminium and plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePieces: 2 (one per side)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitting kit: Spacers, screws and all fitting parts included (Accossato)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitment: BMW R1200RS (2015–2019)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad approval: None documented, track use only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck: Compare with the application list before ordering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Accossato","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53784357765386,"sku":"PF057N","price":45.26,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/PF057_dfd3de63-6725-47fa-a7b2-50b54b3db523.png?v=1790043017","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/products\/accossato-front-axle-sliders-bmw-r1200rs-2015-2019-pf057","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
