Crank case crash pads Honda VTR1000F Superhawk Firestorm

Those holes at the surface, about 10mm deep, are specifically designed to absorb impact and prevent potential bounce-back. The subsequent section of the crash pad is engineered to be a complete fill, enabling it to withstand intense sliding without compromising the crankcase cover's integrity. Ensure the infill exceeds 90% density and secure it firmly to your crankcase using two-part glue like JB weld. I opted against mechanical fastening points, such as bolts, to prevent potential damage to the engine case. Although commercial models often feature bolted connections, a severe crash can still jeopardize the engine's casing. Even in track bikes, carbon fiber covers are frequently glued into place rather than relying on bolts for securement.
