DescriptionThe whole story▼
When every lap counts, the last thing you want is a low-side ending your session with a cracked ignition cover. The GBRacing ignition cover protector is engineered specifically for track and racing use on the Suzuki GSX-R 1000 (2009–2016), forming a robust outer shield that absorbs and disperses impact energy before it can reach the casings underneath.
Key Features
- Constructed from a 60% glass-fibre reinforced nylon composite — delivering exceptional impact resistance and structural rigidity without adding unnecessary weight to your race build.
- Bolts directly into place using the included mounting hardware, so fitment is straightforward and repeatable whether you're prepping in the garage or in the paddock.
- No adhesives required — a fully mechanical fixing means the protector can be removed, inspected and refitted quickly between sessions.
- Purpose-designed geometry that sits flush against the GSX-R 1000's engine casings, maintaining a clean profile under the fairing.
- Guards the ignition cover area against costly crash damage, reducing the risk of an oil-spill retirement and an expensive casing repair or replacement.
Built for the Track, Ready for the Road
GBRacing has built its reputation supplying circuit riders who cannot afford mechanical failures caused by incidental contact. The glass-fibre nylon composite used here is the same category of material found across GBRacing's wider engine cover protection range — chosen for its ability to flex under sudden loading rather than shatter. For GSX-R 1000 owners running track days, club racing or endurance events, fitting this protector is one of the most cost-effective forms of insurance available. It is equally at home on a road-legal machine, where kerb strikes, gravel and debris pose a similar threat to exposed engine covers.
Installation
The protector is a bolt-on replacement shield that uses the existing mounting points on the Suzuki GSX-R 1000. Mounting screws are included in the box, so no additional hardware is needed. The mechanical fixing arrangement means there is no curing time and no residue to clean up if you ever need to remove the cover for service access.
