DescriptionThe whole story▼
An HP4 is usually kept for good, and many still see circuit laps, where a low-side often ends with the fork bottoms grinding along the asphalt. These asymmetric GTA protectors sit on the ends of the front axle and are there to take that contact instead.
Key Features
- Asymmetric design inspired by the race track
- Rounded impact body in special plastic on one side
- Conical impact body in milled aluminium on the other side
- Impact and abrasion resistant plastic with good sliding properties
- Reduces crash damage around the front axle and fork feet
- No registration required, according to Gilles
Two different sides
Gilles builds this pair asymmetrically, the way it is done on race bikes: one side carries a rounded body of special plastic that slides over the ground, the other a conical body of milled aluminium. Both are made to resist impact and abrasion.
For the K10 generation
Gilles lists the pair for the HP4 of type K10, built from 2012 to 2015. Only the front axle is covered here; the quick-release pair for the rear axle is a separate product.
Road Approval
Gilles states that no registration is needed for this part on the BMW HP4: no inspection and no entry in the vehicle documents. Fit it according to the instructions and check that everything is tight before the first ride.
Scope of Delivery
An asymmetric pair for the front axle: one protector with the rounded plastic body and one with the conical aluminium body, left and right. The rear axle is protected by a separate set.
