Motorcycle Measurement Guide

Most of our products are specifically designed to fit certain makes/models. If you can't find your bike on our list of available product versions, we can still create one for you in most cases, but need some specific measurements.

Below are some simple steps to ensure we get accurate measurements for your bike before submitting a custom request.

Tire Width | Front Suspension | Rear Suspension


1. Measure Tire Width

1.a. Use a clamp and tighten it until it first touches both sides of the wheel.

1.b. Use a measuring tape to measure the inside of the left side of the clamp to the inside of the right.

2. Measure Front Suspension
