The Kappa KN28 is the specific tubular engine guard for the Honda XL 1000 V Varadero and Varadero ABS of the 2003-2006 series. It protects the twin-cylinder engine, crankcases, and side panels of the Honda maxi-enduro in case of a fall or slide.
✓ Strengths
- Tubular steel – robust structure designed to absorb impact
- Bilateral protection – right and left side
- Specific for the 03 > 06 series – attaches to the designated frame points
- Still in catalogue – for a twenty-year-old motorbike, finding original protection from the Givi group is not a given

Who is it perfect for
For those who maintain a Varadero and still use it for travel. It is a heavy and tall motorcycle: when it falls, the crankcase pays the price. On a vehicle of this age, an engine repair rarely makes economic sense, and precisely for this reason, protection matters more than on a new motorcycle. The KN28 is the original Kappa code for your series.
