I am considering the purchase of frame and swingarm protectors for my track bike. Just to give you an idea, below are sample pictures of frame (left) and swingarm (right) protectors taken at random from the internet:
These seem to be clipped onto the part they are supposed to protect. However, I am not sure if they are glued or not. In other words, how do I install motorbike frame and swingarm protectors?
You didn't mention the particular brand you're buying, but some motorbike frame protectors come with bolts that are meant to substitute the ones in the frame. They are longer than the originals, allowing you to install the protector on the part of the bolt that remain on the outside of the frame.
I'm not sure about the swingarm, but should be straightforward too. Probably you have to disassembly the rear axis and while assembling back put the swingarm protector before the chain tensioner.
Can't help much without knowing the particular model you intend to buy, but I'm pretty confident whichever it is they are not glued. I wouldn't trust them if they were at least..
