DescriptionThe whole story▼
The GBRacing ignition cover protector gives your Yamaha YZF-R1 or R1M a reliable first line of defence against the kind of crash damage that can turn a minor get-off into an expensive engine repair. Engineered from a 60% glass-fibre reinforced nylon compound, it wraps the ignition unit in a housing that absorbs and deflects impact energy without adding unnecessary bulk — ideal for both road riding and track days where peace of mind matters as much as lap times.
Key Features
- Constructed from 60% glass-fibre nylon for a level of rigidity and impact resistance that outlasts standard OEM plastic covers.
- Bolt-on fitment with all mounting hardware included — no adhesives, no improvisation, and straightforward removal if you ever need to service the ignition unit.
- Designed to reduce crash-related damage to the ignition assembly, protecting you from the repair bills that follow a trackday incident.
- Profiled to follow the R1/R1M engine casing lines, keeping the purposeful, race-derived aesthetic of these machines fully intact.
- Covers all RN32, RN49 and RN65 frame codes, making it a single purchase that works across the entire 2015–2026 model run.
Built for the Track, Proven on the Road
GBRacing engine covers have become a fixture in club racing paddocks precisely because they do one job exceptionally well: they keep expensive internals protected when a bike goes down. The glass-fibre nylon construction resists shattering under impact, distributing load across the cover rather than concentrating it on the ignition casing. At the same time, the material is light enough that there is no perceptible change to the handling balance of the R1.
For road riders, the benefit is equally clear. A single drop in a car park or a low-side on a wet roundabout can crack an OEM ignition cover and leave you stranded. Fitting this protector before that moment costs a fraction of what a replacement cover plus labour would set you back.
