Description
Protect the hull and oil pan on your 2017-2023 Kawasaki 1500 SXR with the R&D Foam Under-Engine Insert. This fuel-resistant foam block fills the tight gap under the engine, preventing dropped nuts, bolts, or debris from lodging there and causing cracks, punctures, or oil leaks over time.
Simple but Effective Protection
- Fills dead space to trap small hardware before it causes damage
- Chemical- and fuel-resistant for long life in bilge conditions
- Removable and cleanable – easy to inspect during service
- Custom fit for 2017-2023 Kawasaki 1500 SXR hulls
Loose hardware in the bilge is a silent killer on stand-ups – it rattles around, eventually wearing through thin aluminum or plastic. This insert acts as a barrier and catcher, saving expensive hull repairs and preventing oil contamination.
Practical & Reusable Design
R&D uses closed-cell foam that’s durable yet compressible, holding shape while allowing easy removal for cleaning or engine work. No adhesives needed – it stays put during rides.
- Reduces risk of costly oil pan or hull damage
- Quick install – drop in place under oil pan
- Reusable after pressure washing or solvent cleaning
- Peace of mind for aggressive freestyle or race use
Small part, big prevention value for SXR owners.
Install & Care Notes
Lift engine slightly if needed, slide insert into gap, ensure full coverage. Check periodically during maintenance and clean as required. Trim if minor fit adjustments needed.
Safeguard your Kawasaki 1500 SXR hull and engine with the R&D Foam Insert.
