I have ARC levers on my 2017 KX250F and was wondering if they do a specific dust cover for the brake lever? I couldnt find one on the site, The standard kawasaki one I have atm just slips off whenever the lever bends back. If anyone could help it would be appreciated!

Not 100% sure but last week I emailed them and they replied very quickly. Good luck RE!

No covers made,. My buddy trimmed his and it slid over a little bit. But I didn't trim mine. Guess it's a choice. Keep it clean and lubed.

I think I may have a solution, since I work at a suzuki dealer I had a quick look at an RMZ cover and they look like they would sit alot better over the OE kawasaki cover.

They arent ARC specific covers but this is what you are looking for I think. They were on Motosport and e-Bay.

Nah mate seen these ones, they look kinda tacky, I figured it out, The RM-Z cover fits perfectly and doesnt slip off when the lever comes forward Thanks though!

I ordered the Streamline one, and should have it soon. I will post some pics of it for you, and could you show what the Suzuki one looks like when you mount it as I am also interested in it too, as I saw pics of it and it looks like it would work very well.? Thx.

I used my stock YZ250F cover on my ARC brake lever. Not an exact fit but it works pretty well. Never had a problem with it.
