At low speed that mistake usually ends with the bike simply toppling sideways rather than anything worse, but the front wheel area takes the knock either way. For the Z650 built between 2017 and 2020, Accossato's PF052 front axle sliders are built for exactly that early learning period on the bike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront axle sliders for the Kawasaki Z650, 2017 to 2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccossato part PF052, one protector for each side of the front wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminium combined with plastic, finished in black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpacers, screws and further mounting parts in the kit, as stated by Accossato\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeant to touch down first if the bike tips while the rider is still learning it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePairs with the TP096 fairing crash pads for the same Z650\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSame PF052 part also listed for the related Kawasaki Ninja 650\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo German ABE on file; listed for racing and competition use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth sides of the PF052 take an identical black-finished protector, cast from aluminium with plastic sections built in. Fitting hardware comes along too: Accossato packs spacers and screws into the box alongside whatever else it feels the job needs. Nothing in the paperwork we hold spells out how the pair actually locates on this Kawasaki's fork, so this listing avoids guessing at bolt sizes or thread lengths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGetting to Know a Bigger Engine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA rider stepping up to the Z650 from something smaller usually spends the first few weeks recalibrating how much clutch and throttle the bike actually needs, and that recalibration period produces more than its share of stalls and low-speed tip-overs at junctions and in car parks. None of it is a crash in the dramatic sense, but the front end still meets the ground, and sliders there give it something replaceable to lean on while the rider finds their feet with the new bike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKawasaki built the Z650 across 2017 to 2020 for this PF052 fitment; double-check your exact year before ordering. The closely related Ninja 650 uses the identical front axle beneath its fuller bodywork, so one part number covers both the naked and the faired version of this platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccossato supplies no German ABE or equivalent approval paperwork for the PF052, so we list this pair for racing and competition use on the Z650 rather than for everyday road riding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eScope of Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo front axle sliders in black, one per side, together with the spacers, screws and other mounting parts Accossato includes for fitting.\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: PF052\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: Kawasaki Z650 (2017–2020)\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":53856006570250,"sku":"PF052N","price":45.26,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/PF052_2022311f-2e20-498c-940e-037b2044ed22.png?v=1791134438","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/products\/accossato-front-axle-sliders-kawasaki-z650-2017-2020-pf052","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
