DescriptionThe whole story▼
Melotti Racing updated its Impact Absorber for the I2M Chrome dashboard family, covering the Lite, Plus, Plus 2, Pro and Pro 2 versions, after more than five months of testing against I2M's own current technical specification for these units. The brief was the same one behind the rest of the range, protecting an expensive piece of race electronics from a crash, but built here around years of experience gathered across major national and international competitions rather than a first attempt at the shape.
Key Features
- Compatible with the I2M Chrome Lite, Plus, Plus 2, Pro and Pro 2 dashboards
- Released after more than five months of testing, built to I2M's own latest technical specification
- Case machined from solid aluminium alloy using 3D technology
- Structure resists impact without limiting the dashboard's degrees of freedom
- Extra protection over the button area, taken from switchgear used in GP and Superbike racing
- Quick-fix front panel mounting for a precise, resistant fit with fast removal
- Front panel in Margard technopolymer, built for high impact and abrasion resistance with anti-UV treatment
- Supplied complete with SMA antenna fittings, mounting spacers and gear-indicator adhesive strips
Construction and Material Quality
The case is machined from solid aluminium alloy using 3D technology, and its structure is designed to absorb an impact without restricting the degrees of freedom the I2M Chrome dashboard needs to sit correctly inside it. Around the button area specifically, Melotti Racing built in extra protection taken from the switchgear design used in GP and Superbike racing, where a damaged button under a race glove is as much of a problem as a cracked screen. The quick-fix front panel mounting gives a precise, resistant coupling that still comes apart quickly when needed, and the panel itself is made from Margard technopolymer, chosen for its resistance to impact and abrasion and finished with an anti-UV treatment to protect the front face from constant sun exposure.
Five Months of Testing Behind One Quick-Fix Mount
Melotti Racing redeveloped both the technical design and the appearance of this case to match I2M's latest manual for the Chrome dashboard family, rather than carrying over an older shape, and the five months of testing behind it went specifically into getting the quick-fix mount and the button-area protection right across all five dashboard variants. Fitting the Plus 2 or Pro 2 versions needs the four red spacers included in the kit, placed between the case and the dashboard's own silent-blocks, so the unit sits correctly rather than loose inside the case.
Fitment and Compatibility
This Impact Absorber fits the I2M Chrome Lite, Plus, Plus 2, Pro and Pro 2 dashboards, not a particular motorcycle, so it works on any bike carrying one of these units. The Pro and Pro 2 versions additionally need the 90-degree SMA antenna fitting and SMA extension included in the kit to relocate the antenna connection.
Road Approval
No type approval or test certificate is on file for this dashboard protector. Melotti Racing sells it for racetrack and closed-circuit use, and a bike carrying this dashboard and case is not approved for public roads in Germany without separate registration.
Scope of Delivery
One Impact Absorber case in Margard technopolymer and aluminium alloy for the I2M Chrome range, complete with the 90-degree SMA fitting, SMA extension, four red mounting spacers and DYMO gear-indicator strips.
