It would be a tough task to find anyone who does not want to take all possible measures to ensure their motorcycle remains protected and that is only natural when you have invested so much time and money into your pride and joy.

Luckily, there is a wide array of products out there that can be used to level up motorcycle protection. In fact, there are a number of additions you can make to your motorcycle to ensure each specific component remains protected.

With that said, you may not know exactly what to look for. So, here are the top five products to increase motorcycle protection:

1. Engine Covers

It is safe to say no one wants to sustain any damage to their motorcycle and although in some cases that is unavoidable, you will want to do anything you can to protect the major components of your motorbike and that is why engine covers should be at the top of your list.

Made from lightweight but durable materials, motorcycle engine covers simply screw into place over the engine’s components without the need for additional metalwork and are designed to offer protection in the event of a slide.

2. Frame Sliders

Motorcycle frame sliders have a lot to offer any motorbike, but their main purpose is of course, protection. If you are seeking to maximise protection for your motorcycle, then you really should consider frame sliders.

First and foremost, they protect the integral parts of your motorcycle in the event of a drop or a fall at high speeds, absorbing the impact so the main body, fairing and engine do not have to. Secondly, as one of the first parts to make contact with the ground, frame sliders not only bear the brunt of the impact, but also prevent the motorbike from flipping over and causing more damage.

3. Fork Protector & Swing Arm Protector

Front fork protectors absorb impact so major parts don't have to.

When it comes to motorcycle protection, there are numerous important components that run the risk of becoming damaged and as a result, there is a seemingly endless list of products that are recommended to reduce damage. With that said, motorcycle front fork protectors and swing arm protectors are two more potential additions that should not be overlooked.

Front fork protectors act as the first line of defence for the fork and suspension to reduce the extent of damage in the event of an accident or a fall at high speeds. Swing arm protectors are made from impact-resistant materials and form a vital defence for you guessed it, the swingarm, reducing the risk of scuffs and scratches.

4. Radiator Guards

Protecting the motorcycle’s radiator may not be everyone’s priority and for that reason it is fair to say radiator guards are an underrated form of protection.

Commonly available in plastic or steel, motorcycle radiator guards protect the radiator from collecting a buildup of mud and dirt while acting as a shield against the potential damage posed by flying road debris.

5. Headlight Protector

As far as motorcycle protection goes, headlight protectors are unlikely to be the first thing that pops into anyone’s mind, but that does not mean they should be ignored by any stretch of the imagination.

Motorcycle headlight protectors are designed to defend against the potential chips and cracks posed by stones and other flying debris. Although it is highly likely the protector will need to be replaced, it will be a lot more straightforward and cost-effective than having to replace the headlight itself.
