Purpose / Function:
• Serves as a protective cover to shield adjacent components (frame, bodywork, rider’s leg) from the high heat of the exhaust pipe.
• Enhances aesthetic appeal, especially matching the carbon/performance look of aftermarket exhaust systems.
Material & Construction:
• Made of carbon fiber for heat resistance, lightness, and durability.
• Clear coating/finish to protect the carbon surface and maintain appearance.
Remarks / Notes:
• This is typically an optional / aftermarket add-on for bikes equipped with Akrapovic exhausts (the shield is designed to integrate with their system).
• It helps prevent heat damage or discomfort from the exhaust to nearby parts or riders.
• Because it’s carbon, it offers a premium look that matches performance parts.
