Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the X-Power cover, ensure the motorcycle engine is cool. Clean the existing engine side casing thoroughly to remove any grease or oil residue that could interfere with the fit. Remove the necessary factory bolts, align the Acerbis cover, and replace the bolts according to the manufacturer's torque specifications. The cover is compatible with select KTM and Husqvarna models; always verify your engine's year and displacement before installation. For care, simply use a mild degreaser and a soft brush during your post-ride wash. Avoid using high-pressure power washers directly against the seams to ensure moisture does not trap underneath the cover over time.
