R&G Racing has released a full range of crash protection and styling parts for Honda’s new super naked CB1000R.

The recently launched street fighter’s combination of aggressive styling and strong performance abilities has quickly caught the attention of a varied discipline of riders. Despite its sporting credentials, the absence of a full fairing, and the protection that gives, exposes the CB1000R’s frame and Fireblade-derived engine, leaving it more vulnerable to damage in the event of an accident.

R&G Racing’s answer to this, without upsetting the styling, is with a six-strong offering of bolt-on protectors. Leading the way are heavy-duty Engine Case Sliders that bolt over the existing engine covers each side of the four-cylinder motor and sleek Aero Crash Protectors extending from the frame’s forward engine mounts.

The Aero Crash Protectors are made from high-density Polyethylene (HDPE) and are designed to wear and not shatter. R&G also utilise a particular grade of steel bolts that helps absorb an impact by bending, rather than snap or twist its mounting point on the bike.

Using this construction method, and furthering the defence theme, are the options of Bar End Sliders to help guard the fuel tank; Fork Protectors for the adjustable, upside down suspension and rear Spindle Sliders for the extravagant single-sided swingarm.

All of R&G’s crash protectors for the CB1000R are relatively simple to fit and do not require any specialist tools to do so, leaving very little excuse for not taking precaution.

Protection aside, R&G also offers liposuction for the CB1000R’s rear with a replacement Tail Tidy. Constructed from black anodised aluminium with an integral LED number plate light and retaining the original indicators (mini indicators can also be fitted), the lightweight unit substitutes the chunky standard hanger and allows the seat unit to appear pert as Honda’s designers intended.
