Developed by Rox Speed FX in 2007 to meet the specific demands of competitive racing, the Handguard Flare is engineered to provide enhanced wind protection without compromising the original aesthetics of the Star Series guard. By attaching behind the hand, the design creates a distinct pocket of protection rather than a flat plate, allowing racers to utilize lightweight gloves even in colder temperatures. This solution addresses the reduced wind protection and minimal windshield configurations commonly found on late model sleds.
Constructed from durable cross-link foam with a Cordura-type skin, the flare offers robust material integrity suited for high-performance conditions. The package includes all necessary mounting hardware and instructions for straightforward installation. This component serves as a critical upgrade for riders seeking improved ergonomic comfort and thermal management during extended riding sessions.
