Handguards
Your hands are your most important tool on the trail — protect them. Handguards shield your hands and controls from branch strikes, roost, falls, and the elements, reducing hand fatigue and preventing injuries that can end a ride or a race season. A good set of handguards is one of the highest-value safety upgrades you can add to any dirt bike, enduro machine, or adventure motorcycle.
Our handguard selection includes both open-style trail guards for lighter protection and fully wrapped bark busters for maximum coverage in tight, technical terrain. We carry options from trusted brands including Acerbis, known for their patented X-Ultimate and X-Factor designs that absorb and redirect impact energy away from your hands and levers. Most models are compatible with standard 7/8-inch and 1 1/8-inch handlebars.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the benefits of installing Acerbis handguards on a dirt bike or ATV?
Handguards like the Acerbis Rally Pro provide critical protection for your hands and handlebar controls against impact from roost, branches, and debris during off-road riding. These guards also help prevent broken levers during a fall by providing a durable physical barrier made from high-resistance polypropylene or aluminum-reinforced nylon.
Do Acerbis X-Force handguards fit all 7/8 inch and 1-1/8 inch handlebars?
Most Acerbis handguards, including the X-Force and X-Ultimate models, feature universal mounting kits designed to fit both standard 7/8 inch and oversized 1-1/8 inch bars. However, riders with unconventional bar bends or crowded control clusters should verify clearance for brake lines and clutch cables before completing the installation.
What is the difference between open-ended and full-wrap bark busters?
Open-ended models like the Acerbis Uniko provide lightweight wind and roost protection ideal for motocross, while full-wrap 'bark busters' feature a metal or plastic bar that connects to the handlebar ends for maximum impact resistance. If you ride tight wooded trails where clipping trees is common, a full-wrap guard is the superior choice for preventing hand injuries and snapped levers.
How do I choose the right handguard size for my riding style?
Sizing is generally determined by the amount of coverage needed; larger shields provide better wind protection for cold-weather riding, while vented models like the X-Ultimate allow for better airflow during summer racing. Check the specific dimensions of the mounting surface to ensure the shield does not interfere with your bike's master cylinder or electric start buttons.
Are aftermarket handguards compatible with wrap-around hand shields and spoilers?
Many Acerbis handguard systems are modular, allowing you to add or remove spoilers to increase the surface area for additional weather protection. When purchasing, ensure the mounting brackets are compatible with your specific motorcycle brand's triple clamp or handlebar diameter to prevent the guards from rotating during high-vibration riding.
