Shock Heat Shield Black KTM 790/890

【CAMEL CAP-790SHS-BK Shock Heat Shield Black KTM 790/890 Bonsai Moto】
This shield blocks heat from the catalytic converter to the rear shock.
It can improve suspension performance and extend maintenance intervals.
Features
Of course, it's a bolt-on!
The problem with the 790 is that the catalytic converter is directly beneath the rear shock.
Even during normal riding, temperatures can reach several hundred degrees, and heat from the catalytic converter increases the temperature of the rear shock. When shock oil overheats, it undergoes thermal decomposition.
This process changes the viscosity of the oil, increases wear on moving parts, and can degrade suspension performance due to a phenomenon called heat fade.
CAMEL's aluminum heat shield is TIG welded and ceramic coated.
Installing it between the catalytic converter and the rear shock lowers the operating temperature of the shock.
Less impact from heat from the catalytic converter means the shock oil stays cooler, service intervals are extended, and the effects of heat fade on the shock are reduced.
CAMEL is not a suspension shop, but we believe there are issues not only with the effects of excessive heat from the catalytic converter but also with the internal components of the shock.
Reducing the effects of excessive heat is important for good suspension performance and longevity.
However, this heat shield does not solve the underlying shock issues of the 790.
