Description
The Evotech Performance upper radiator guard is designed for the Ducati 848, 1098 and 1198 superbikes, protecting the radiator from damage caused by road debris and stone strikes while still allowing cooling air to pass through. The guard is CNC machined from aircraft quality aluminium and finished in a durable black powder coating for longevity and a refined appearance. Its elegantly designed matrix is pierced with hexagonal holes to optimise airflow while providing maximum protection from road debris, balancing strength with cooling efficiency. The guard fits using the existing mounting points on the bike, so no modification is required, and the kit includes fixings and easy-to-follow instructions. The product boasts a remarkable strength-to-weight ratio. On a high-performance Ducati superbike, the radiator sits exposed at the front of the bike and is both expensive and difficult to replace, so even a small stone puncture could lead to coolant loss and overheating. A quality guard like this is therefore a sensible safeguard for road and track use. Evotech’s hexagonal matrix is engineered to maintain the airflow needed for effective cooling while resisting impacts. The guard adds a clean, purposeful aesthetic that complements the classic styling of the 848, 1098 and 1198 while providing genuine practical protection for the radiator.
