FAQ

Stock levers on the CRF1000L/1100L are rigid and can bend or snap on impact. NICECNC's folding shift lever and rear brake pedal assembly solves this with an inward-folding design — instead of breaking, the lever rotates in on impact.

For dusty or gravel-heavy riding, yes — reusable filters are easier to clean on the trail or after a ride, and avoid the recurring cost of replacing paper filters. NiceCNC's version is a direct replacement for OEM part 17210-MKS-E00, requiring no modification.

Yes, NICECNC's adjustable shift lever for the CRF1000L/1100L offers a -5mm to +20mm length range, plus a widened shift tip for easier engagement with bulky off-road boots — both are common complaints with the stock lever.

A dual-height brake pedal is the fix most riders reach for. NICECNC's version offers a simple push-pull adjustment between a higher position for standing off-road control and a lower position for seated comfort, without needing tools.

The CRF1000L (2016-2019) and CRF1100L (2020-2026) have different frame and engine mounting points in several areas, so parts aren't always interchangeable. NICECNC lists compatibility clearly per product — some parts like oil filter covers fit both, while others like frame guards are 1100L-specific.

Riders typically add a rear luggage rack/cargo carrier, tie-down brackets for side bags, or a quick-release tank bag. NICECNC's rear luggage rack kit for the CRF1100L (2022-2026) is a common choice for mounting soft luggage or top cases without frame modification.

Yes, handlebar riser or AMPS-style GPS mount brackets attach to existing handlebar or clamp points without drilling. NICECNC offers several CRF1100L-specific GPS mount options depending on your handlebar setup.

Buffeting usually happens when turbulent air coming off the top of the windscreen hits the rider’s helmet. How bad it is depends on three things: screen height, screen position, and the rider’s own height and helmet shape. A screen that sits too low leaves the helmet in rough air, and raising the screen or moving it to a better position often smooths the airflow. 
NICECNC offers two ways to do this for the Africa Twin CRF1100L: a 100mm raised windshield that replaces the original screen, and a windscreen riser adjuster bracket that lets you fine-tune the height of the screen you already have.

Yes — enlarged or forged foot pegs give more standing platform and grip than the stock pegs, which many riders find too small for off-road standing. NICECNC makes forged enlarged foot pegs and combo kits that pair pegs with a dual-height rear brake pedal for CRF1100L models 2020-2026.

The most common upgrades are frame guards, a front sprocket cover, and front wheel sliders — these protect the areas most exposed to boot contact, chain debris, and tip-overs during off-road and ADV riding. NICECNC offers all three in 6061 aluminum as direct-fit replacements for the stock plastic parts.

A pair of bolt-on frame guards is the standard fix — they upgrade the frame's contact points from plastic to aluminum and mount directly to the factory points with no modification. NICECNC's frame guards for the CRF1100L (replacement numbers 50607-MKS-E00ZB / 50707-MKS-E00ZB) are a direct-fit option.

It can involve trade-offs. A larger screen presents more surface to the wind, and some riders find a tall screen less comfortable when standing on the pegs or riding slowly on technical trails. Riders who split their time between highway and trail often prefer a position they can change, while riders who mostly ride on the road usually prefer a taller fixed screen. NICECNC’s windscreen riser adjuster bracket can be set to its lowest position (0mm) for trail riding and raised for highway days. NICECNC’s 100mm raised windshield suits riders who want maximum coverage and mostly ride on the road.

It depends on what you want to fix.
A taller windscreen suits riders who simply want more coverage. For example, NICECNC’s raised windshield is 100mm taller than the original and is a fixed-height replacement made from 4mm PC.
A riser adjuster suits riders who want to keep the original screen and dial in the position. For example, NICECNC’s windscreen riser adjuster bracket offers stepless adjustment from 0 to 70mm and is machined from anodized aluminum.

Using both together is generally unnecessary, because the combined height would be more than most riders need. Choose one based on whether you want a bigger screen or a more adjustable position.
