Who is it perfect for?

It is the right part for those who keep the original center link on their first-generation Honda CB 1000 R and want to shield the heat of the catalytic converter while leaving a carbon detail visible. It is suitable for both a bike that has remained stock and a bike with only the silencer replaced, because the center section in that case remains the original one.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Arrow 11002MI heat shield used for?
It is a carbon fiber protection that is applied over the original center catalytic link of the Honda CB 1000 R. It acts as a shield between the hottest section of the exhaust system and the surrounding area, while also revealing a carbon finish instead of the stock metal.

Which motorcycle is it fitted to?
The Honda CB 1000 R from 2008 to 2017, the first generation identified by Honda with the SC60 vehicle type. It is the only application compatible with this code: for the CB 1000 R from 2018 onwards, which has a different exhaust system, the correct part is different.

Can it also be fitted to the Arrow non-catalytic link?
No. The 11002MI is a protection for the original center catalytic link: the shape follows that part. If the stock link has been replaced with an aftermarket one, the heat shield will not find the intended mounting points and holes.

What material is it made of and how much does it weigh?
It is made of carbon fiber, with a visible twill weave and a glossy finish. The two mounting holes are reinforced by metal bushings embedded in the laminate, so the screw does not work directly on the carbon fiber. The color is the natural black of the fabric and the weight is 0.15 kg.

Does it change the motorcycle's performance or noise?
No. The heat shield is a protection and finishing element: it is not in the path of the exhaust gases, so it does not affect power, torque, noise, or emissions. However, the code remains classified among racing items and does not carry its own road approval.

Is it an original Arrow product?
Yes. It is the original item from Arrow Special Parts with code 11002MI and EAN 8019799060852, new and never fitted. Moon Bike S.r.l. is based in Cercola, in the province of Naples, and ships it from Italy with an invoice and manufacturer's warranty.
