1. What are the benefits of the Chain Guard Cover for the Yamaha R6?
This carbon fiber chain guard not only protects the chain and swingarm area from mud, dirt, and debris but also enhances the bike’s style with a race-inspired finish. Being made from 100% carbon fiber, it is lighter and stronger than the stock OEM guard. Many riders also choose to pair it with other Yamaha R6 carbon fiber parts for a full upgrade.
2. Will this chain guard fit my Yamaha YZF R6?
Yes, this product is designed specifically for Yamaha R6 models from 2017 to 2020. Since it’s a direct bolt-on part, it aligns perfectly with your bike’s OEM mounting points. No drilling, cutting, or modification is required, making installation quick and straightforward.
3. How do I install the chain guard cover?
Installation is simple:
- Remove your OEM chain guard.
- Align the Turn1 chain guard with the existing mounts.
- Secure using the original bolts.
For best results, many riders also upgrade with complementary parts like rear huggers or mud guards, which together provide maximum protection.
4. Is the carbon fiber finish durable for daily use?
Yes. All Turn1 carbon fiber parts are autoclave-cured for strength and finished with a UV-resistant coating. This ensures long-lasting gloss, heat resistance, and protection against scratches. Unlike cheaper alternatives, the surface won’t fade quickly and retains its premium look even with regular riding.
5. How do I maintain the carbon fiber shine?
- Clean with a soft microfiber cloth and mild soap.
- Avoid abrasive sponges or cleaners that may scratch the finish.
- For best results, apply a UV-protective polish to preserve the gloss.
This simple care routine works not only for your chain guard but also for other Turn1 upgrades.
