Duke 125-390 & RC390 Frame Slider Crash Protectors

Engine & Frame Protection for Duke and RC Models

Keep your KTM Duke or RC protected during everyday rides, spirited weekend runs, or occasional track days with these dedicated frame slider crash protectors. Designed specifically for Duke 125, 200, 250, 390 (2011-2022) and RC390 (2022, not suitable for some RC series), this kit helps shield key components such as the engine cases, frame and side bodywork when the bike tips over or slides at speed.

Manufactured from CNC-machined aluminum with a top section made from POM (polyoxymethylene), the sliders combine a solid mounting base with a wear-resistant outer surface. The POM head is designed to absorb and distribute impact forces while offering a controlled sliding surface that helps reduce direct contact between the ground and the motorcycle's engine and frame. Each set includes left and right sliders (1 pair / 2 pcs) in an orange finish that visually complements KTM styling without dominating the look of the bike.

The sliders mount to the original frame mounting points, so there is no need for cutting or permanent modifications. Fast screw-on installation makes them accessible for riders who prefer to perform their own upgrades. Once installed, the protectors integrate closely with the bike's lines and do not interfere with ground clearance, normal cornering, or daily usability. This makes them a practical addition for commuting, touring, and performance riding, helping to reduce the likelihood of costly repairs after a fall or low-side.

FAQ

Q: Which motorcycles does this kit fit?
A: It is designed for DUKE 390 (2011-2022), DUKE 200 (2011-2021), DUKE 125/250 (2011-2020) and RC390 2022. It is not suitable for some other RC series models.

Q: Do I need to drill or cut any bodywork?
A: No. The sliders use the original mounting points, so installation does not require cutting or permanent modification to the frame or fairings.

Q: Can they be installed at home?
A: Yes. With basic tools and by following standard torque and safety practices, most riders can complete the installation themselves. If unsure, a professional mechanic can fit them quickly.

Q: Will these affect handling or cornering clearance?
A: When correctly installed on the specified models, the sliders are positioned to avoid interference with normal riding dynamics and lean angles.

Q: What is the main function of the POM material on top?
A: The POM top section provides a hard, wear-resistant contact surface that helps manage friction and impact when the motorcycle slides or tips over, reducing direct damage to engine cases and frame areas.
