Skip Plate
How many people take off thier skid plate? how much protection does it actually give? after removal does it help air flow?

Re: Skip Plate
My G9 had the plate removed before I got the cart, been running the way for years with stock engine and a v-twin. On and off road never had a problem (I'm knocking on wood). Yes, much better air flow and way easier to clean the mud out. It dose make the cart a bit louder though.

Re: Skip Plate
When i had mine down to the bare frame, I welded 1/4" nuts where the rivets used to go for the skid plate. Now I use bolts to hold it on, I can take it off if I choose or need to clean under there. I'm hoping it keeps water out a little better and it's not worth blowing a rear end out on a rock, if you have the skid plate sitting around in your shop somewhere! The insulation I removed, shot anyway.
So i keep mine on!! Also I bet these rear ends are getting expensive?! I've got a picture, but it's not good. |
