Are lever guards useful?
The installation of motorcycle lever guards offer many advantages. So if you're into racing or you just want to protect the end of your handlebars and, what's more important, your brake / clutch levers and hands, these black aluminium Polini Lever Guards are the way to go. Moto GP added the mandatory use of these Brake Lever Guards to their regulations a long time ago, and over time they've become a staple on many race scooters; among others events, they are now mandatory for the Polini Italian Cup. The guards protect the brake and clutch levers in case of a crash and thus allow for resuming the race. The lever protectors also prevent involuntary braking maneuvers during contact with other riders. Last but not least, lever guards also reduce the risk of injury to the rider, fingers can no longer be trapped between the lever and handlebar.
And last but not least - the parts give your bike a cool racing look.
Construction and use of lever guards
The inside of the lever guards is made of sturdy aluminum. They are covered with a high quality plastic coating with Polini logo. The lever guards are mounted in the handlebar ends, which means you need open end grips or cut the grip ends yourself.

bar ends
In most cases, handlebar ends are only added for looks, but they also have some useful functions:
Advantages of anti-vibration bar ends
- In the event of a fall, they protect the rubber grips, which could tear off, as well as the throttle grip, whose plastic tends to tear.
- By placing two equal masses on both sides of the handlebar, you give the handlebar, steering column and wheel unit more inertia in relation to the axis of the steering column. This increases the energy required to cause this unit to vibrate or oscillate and stabilizes the entire motorcycle or scooter.
Disadvantages of handlebar weights
- However, there is a disadvantage to using handlebar ends: you have to cut open the "closed" end of the throttle grip. This means that dirt can get between the grip and handlebar more easily and get stuck there, which can affect the rotation of the throttle.
