Motorcycle parts and accessories, essential for hard enduro: the Freenduro Guide

To avoid breaking your piggy bank, protect your motorcycle!

In recent years, the enthusiasm for hard-enduro has been growing, but if there is a discipline where motorcycles really suffer, it is this one.
So if you want to limit the breakage and preserve your wallet, it is better to equip your motorcycles with maximum protection.

Based on this observation, it was thought that making a small list of motorcycle protection parts and accessories, oriented extreme enduro could be useful.

Below are three sets of accessories and equipment for the motorcycle (to protect the cycle part, the engine and as a bonus a selection of traction straps).

Our selection of protections for the part-cycle

In hard-enduro, the bike part will be put to the test (falls, breaks, slips, etc.). So if you do not want to have to break your piggy bank to buy original parts after each outing, it is better to invest in Euros in solid protective accessories for your bike.
The list of accessories below is not exhaustive, but these 4 equipments will allow you to limit the damage on your bike!

AXP Enduro Xtrem Engine Sabot

With this 8 mm thick, the PEHP AXP clog will effectively protect your bottom engine and frame of your motorcycle.enduro and will greatly limit the risk of engine casing breakage.

Frame protection

To avoid sanding the side posts of the frame of your bike and have more grip between the legs in the mud, Acerbis X-grip protectors go the job perfectly.

Swing arm protection

As with frame protection here too, it is up to you to see whether or not you want to spend €24 on this plastic protection, to avoid having a completely disgusting swinging arm.

Reinforced Chain Guide

The original chain guides mounted on enduro motorcycles are not strong enough and break too easily. So if you avoid derailing in the first pierrier come, invest in a quality chain guide; Especially much stronger and more protective.

AXP HDPE Channel Guide

Our selection of protections for the motor part

As with the part-cycle, in hard-enduro many engine parts are (too) exposed to the risk of breakage, so here too it is better to prevent than cure and invest in protective parts to avoid damaging an engine foolishly (especially as the repair bill for a broken engine can quickly climb: For example, we think of a small (but essential) part like a TPS KTM sensor that will cost you more than 230 € new.

Universal exhaust protection for 2T

It may not be the best 2-stroke exhaust protection, but it has the merit of being available on all motorcycle models and, in particular, of being cheaper than other models made of fibre or carbon imitation made in China.

Exhaust silencer tip protection

Again, for just over €30, it is an accessory that can help you avoid having to buy an original or adaptable silencer. Admittedly, it does not protect against big shocks, but at least it will protect small pockets and avoid scratching your silencer when slipping (it is a very exposed piece in hard-enduro).

Clutch crankcase protection – Polisport

To avoid piercing its clutch housing, again around EUR 30, it is in our opinion a good investment that could save you money by bad money in repairing an engine that would have broken for a lack of oil because of a leak on the housing.

TPS KTM / HVA / GASGAS sensor protection

At more than €230 for the new TPS sensor at KTM, prevention is better than cure and is it probably a good idea to invest €40 in aluminium protection for this famous sensor?
