Anybody seen any replacements for the skid plate on my 350? I'm getting tired of welding all the breaks on the factory unit and it's obviously not a very sturdy plate anyhow. I need something effective and hopefully under $100. It's getting harder to find aftermarket stuff for these old bikes. Thanks, Max

 

Look up www.prm-atv.com They have one for $83. they look well built. I dont own one tho. I have bought graydon proline skids. They are built very well. I dont know if they make one for the x.

 

Being that I usually run 18 inch tires on 8 inch rims on my X I ripped my aftermarket skid off. It wasnt because of the skid being low quality but because of the low pro tires. I broke the little thin brakets that you screw the skid onto. Anyway I have been going without a skid for a long time so unless you are a log jumper or a mud rider you dont need one.Your trike might feel naked but it really isnt.

 

It's really just the rocks that scare me the most. It affects the way I ride in some areas because I'm conscious of the brake disk being vulnerable.

Try www.atvsalvage.com

They had some aluminium skid plates but there was a minimum order. I don't remember how much they were or what the minimum order was but you may find something there.

Thanks for the information guys. Looks like I'll be cracking the wallet open soon. Max
