Where I trail ride there is a lot of fist size and slightly bigger stones that i have to ride over with my DVX.These come with the same crappy plastic skid plates as the kawizuki's.Ground clearance is also very important as I do go through some mud and ruts too.This bike seems to get hung up in the ruts very easily compared to my warrior and the warrrior has 20 inch tires on the rear as well.Whats the best brand of skid plate for the swing arm?Like I said ground clearance is the most important thing as I don't race over the rocks but I need more protection than the plastic gives.

 

You could start by looking at the plates AC has in their catalog, or maybethe dealer may have one for you to look at.

I have thier thick skid plate on my KFX and it is holding up great.

 

Yeah that looks like a good one.Do you lose any ground clearance with it?Any feedback would be appreciated[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

The only clearance you really loose is the extra thickness of the plate vs the stock plastic one.
