Description
Wunderlich DOUBLESHOCK Axle Protection Pads, Front, Black
The protective pads distance these components during bouncing or sliding contact with the floor or road and thus reduce or avoid costly damage to the motorcycle. In addition to the choice of material, we have also integrated two significant, specific properties into the construction and tested these in racing, these being the damping and abrasion resistance that significantly increases in the slide phase.
The damping: The first positive feature we should mention is the damping, which can partially or fully capture and absorb part of the impact energy where impacting forces occur.
Abrasion resistance: The second positive characteristic is the abrasion resistance, which owing the component geometry increases from the outside in due to the enlargement of the effective slide area. This means that our axle protection pad only offers a low level of frictional resistance on light contact, but shortens the time and area of the grinding phase, such as when grinding along the road surface for a longer period. This means that in a crash with the axle protection pad, the time in which the motorcycle slides and the slide path itself are both reduced.
For the optimum protection of your machine, we recommend the combination of our axle protection pads with our vehicle-specific protection bar systems, for which we offer additional protection pads separately.
Function
- Effective, double protection against impact and abrasive damage to the front fork, wheel axle and brake system
- Tested in racing
- The progressive, increasing abrasion resistance shortens the time and area of the slide phase in the event of extended contact with the road
- Ideal combination with engine protection bars and pads, because the vehicle now has extra support with the axle protection pads during the „slide phase“
- Easy, secure and quick assembly
- Complete with mounting kit
- Material: Highly durable special plastic, impact-absorbing, abrasion resistance determined by the component geometry
- Wunderlich design. Functional and integrated.

Wunderlich -The Perfect Match
Wunderlich - Setting the New Standard with BMW U.S. Rider Academy. Teaming up with BMW's official U.S. Rider Academy, home for the GS trophy qualifier, we’ve developed the toughest protection components for your GS. Our limited production run is now in stock, allowing you to elevate your GS to this new World Class standard!
Our journey with the BMW U.S. Rider Academy began with creating the Ultimate Engine Bars for their R1250 GS training fleet. Inspired by the rigorous demands of their off-road riding course at the BMW Performance Center in Greer, South Carolina, our engineering team at Wunderlich Germany developed these bars to endure the toughest conditions. The resounding success and proven durability of the Ultimate Engine Bars in combination with our Adventure Tank Bars led to a deeper partnership with the Academy.
Thanks to the effectiveness of our Ultimate Engine Bars, the BMW U.S. Riders Academy has expanded its trust in Wunderlich, now relying on us for a wide range of parts for various motorcycle models in their fleet.
They have incorporated numerous Wunderlich products to enhance the durability and performance of their bikes. From headlight guards and ABS sensor protection guards to radiator guards and skid plates, our parts are designed to offer the best in protection and functionality. We also provide various other components such as front axle sliders, engine front housing protectors, and side stand enlargers, ensuring every aspect of the bike is fortified.
Moreover, our collaboration extends to offering accessories that improve the riding experience, like fairing pouch sets and off-road sport windscreens. We also supply turn signal indicator guards, adventure tank bars, and hand guard enlargers, catering to the diverse needs of their motorcycles, including models like the R1250 GS, R1300 GS, F750 GS, and F850 GS.
This collaboration underscores our commitment to quality and innovation, ensuring that BMW riders have the best protection and enhancements for their motorcycles, whether tackling off-road challenges, navigating urban environments, or embarking on long-distance adventures. Our partnership with the BMW U.S. Rider Academy is a testament to the reliability and excellence of Wunderlich products, trusted by one of the most respected training centers in the world.
