Are they cotton reels or spindle sliders? Well they are both really!! The Cotton Reel protects the swingarm area in most crashes. Also the bike can be lifted on the Cotton Reels, using a paddock stand with hooks (suggest R&G code SH0001). These cotton reels specifically designed to screw straight into the swingarm of the KTM 690 Duke IIII ('12- onwards)/ RC 390/ 200/ 125 '22-, 1290 Super Adventure R '23-, Husqvarna Norden 901 '22-, Moto Morini X CAPE 649 '21- & Seiemmezzo SCR '21- and come with 1.5mm pitch hardwear.
