Description
This Evotech Performance radiator guard is a protective cover for the Kawasaki Ninja 500 from 2024 onward, listed under the PRN014023 part number range with the -04 variant designation for this model. It features a hexagonal hole pattern that optimises airflow while providing maximum protection from road debris, shielding the radiator without restricting the cooling air it needs. The guard is CNC machined from aircraft quality aluminium and powder coated black for longevity and a clean, factory-like finish. It attaches to the bike’s existing mounting points with no modifications required to the motorcycle, and all required fittings are supplied with the kit, while easy to follow pictorial instructions are available for download. A radiator guard like this protects the radiator’s delicate cooling fins, which are easily bent by stones and debris thrown up from the road. Bent fins restrict airflow and can lead to overheating, and the radiator core can be holed by stones, causing coolant leaks that can leave the bike inoperable and risk serious engine damage. By guarding the radiator while preserving airflow, this Evotech product helps protect an important and vulnerable component on the Kawasaki Ninja 500, providing effective debris protection with straightforward, modification-free installation that suits the bike’s design.
