X-Head DOHC is designed to protect more of the cylinder head surface than any other guard for these bikes in the event of a fall. Even if it gets away from you in the driveway, the inertia will cause the bike to roll onto the face of the cover before the bike settles down on the bottom of the cylinder. When off-road riding, X-Heads work together with crash bars to prevent damage from rocks that can get past the bars. Behind the super tough polymer shell is a thick rubber liner that helps absorb impact force against the cylinder. The thick shell scrapes when dragged along the ground, but it does not break.

Included in the kit are stainless steel bolts, washers, & installation instructions.

Please note: It does NOT FIT the 2021 R nineT since BMW change the shape of the cylinder head.
