Overview
Remember when Loris Capirossi won the MotoGP World Championship back in 2006? Nope, me either. Probably because he lost valuable points in the championship after being taken out in the Catalunya GP by his team-mate Sete Gibernau due to a lack of lever guards!
Lever guards became mandatory for the 2012 MotoGP season, as well as various other championships such as World Superbike, MotoAmerica, etc., and can most likely be traced back to this incident. Hauling down the straight at triple digit speeds, Sete Gibernau made contact with Loris Capirossi, squeezing his brake lever to the point of lockup, which sent Sete over the bars and in the hospital.
Developed from MotoGP, these Billet Brake Lever Guard by Ducabike use a System that prevents accidental impact involving the brake lever. In most cases the impact itself does not have serious consequences but the possibility of overturning the vehicle is not excluded. This protection protects the lever from unintended pressures in a simple and effective way. Made entirely of aluminum alloy which guarantees resistance and lightness at the same time. Developed from experience in motorcycle championships, it has found superior resistance and an absolute lack of interference with the pilot's hand in any maneuver or type of fall, as it follows a descending profile in the first part and then rises and ends frontally to the levers and lastly, using a spring system that allows the hand to come out outside, overturning the front part which then returns to position thanks to the spring inside. In addition it can be adjusted in length to be used
Don't be like Sete. Protect yourself and your investment with these Brake Lever Guard by Ducabike today!
