What are the best sliders for the Ducati Hypermotard 821/939?
Protection for your motorcycle is something that most bike owners are familiar with. Choosing the right protection package can save you money and headache in the long run. No on wants to drop their bike and test their sliders. Luckily over the years, we have personally crash tested many different bikes with many different brands of protection options.
Here is our list of the best sliders and protection accessories for your Ducati Hypermotard 821 / 939 / 821SP / 939SP. (Most will fit with Hyperstrada versions as well).
1. FRAME SLIDERS BY EVOTECH PERFORMANCE
Frame Sliders are the most popular option when outfitting your motorcycle with protection parts. Typically a durable mounting point, and a form of slider material as a "puck" make up a frame slider. The size and shape depends heavily on the bikes layout, and the intended parts to be protected.
2. FRONT FORK SLIDERS BY EVOTECH PERFORMANCE
The next step is to protect those expensive forks and front brake calipers. If you have ever had to replace a fork lower or brake caliper, you know the rising cost in these essential parts. Motorcycle technology continues to climb. With that increase in performance and technology, the cost of parts rises as well.
Evotech’s front fork spindle protector sliders are incredibly easy to fit and are retained by stainless steel spindles and stainless nyloc nuts, for added security. Made in England from high performance engineering polymer, protect your expensive fork bottoms and brake calipers in the event of a spill. The front axle slider bobbin kit compromises two sliders, spindle, nuts, washers and fitting instructions. Should you need replacements at any time, Evotech supplies individual components.
3. WATER PUMP GUARD WITH CARBON INLAY BY DUCABIKE
With the presence of liquid cooling, comes a water pump. Typically a water pump is in a very exposed spot. Low on the motor, and sticking out on one side. This make a water pump a prime candidate for protection.
The Ducabike water pump slider is cnc machined from a solid block of aluminum to maintain the strength needed to withstand a drop or a slide.
