Motorcycle accessories made in Saxony

When Frank Zieger designed and built his first license plate holder back in 2005, the notion of having his own highly successful company still seemed like a distant dream. A metalworker by trade and also a serious motorcycle rider, he simply wanted something better than what was on the market. And from there, things just took off. A one-off item turned into a mini series, and as demand grew, so too did the range of products. Today Zieger employs 28 people in Dresden and Pirna, and the trend is upwards. The license plate holder is still Zieger's best selling product, but his crash bars, rear racks, engine guard plates, paddock stands and many other accessories are enjoying huge popularity.

This product is made of high-quality CNC-machined aluminium and will look great on your motorbike.

To ensure that it gives you many years of service, please observe the following care instructions:

1. After installing the product, and each time you wash your motorbike, apply a wax-based care product, e.g. Procycle Polishing Wax, Order no. 10004923 for protection against wind and weather. You may need to repeat the application after an outing in winter weather, rain or salty air (near the coast).

2. Remove any corrosion as soon as possible using a standard aluminium polish (e.g. Autosol Aluminium Polish, Order no. 10004421).

Stainless steel is a collective term for rustproof steel. It is much more resistant to corrosion than non-alloyed steels. Stainless steel does not deteriorate, and is hygienic, UV-resistant, non-corroding, fracture-proof, non-toxic and environmentally friendly. It does not weather and can be recycled in its entirety, even after many years. Technically, the term "stainless steel" refers to corrosion-resistant steel alloys with a wide variety of compositions but always containing a high percentage of chromium (usually a minimum of 10.5%)

.

MAINTENANCE:
Stainless steel should be cleaned regularly like all other materials, especially after exposure to salty air (near the coast), and also at regular intervals.
Water can easily collect in corners, edges and screw connections, resulting in corrosion. So careful cleaning is important, and if necessary screws should be undone in order to clean the parts thoroughly.
Do not leave rusty steel parts against stainless steel to avoid the rust "contamination".
