It's not if you crash, it's when...


.
When I stopped by Ducati Stockholm the other day, I found this GBRacing Secondary Engine Cover. We all know that when you fall, the water pump cover almost always get’s destroyed and that the engine cases also gets damaged or at least scratched.

 
This cover is easy to replace, seems very solid and thick, I’m sure that can handle more than one crash, and compare to the cost of an engine casing it’s not expensive.
For sure easier mount and replace compared to similar Carbon fiber / Kevlar & Billet Aluminum covers solutions. I like details like the pre-drilled hole for the safety lock wiring of the oil filler cap (red arrow, first picture abowe)
