Skid Plate
 

Does anyone know who makes a skid plates that is any good for Gasgas??
1) Flatland. stop making them. Theres was the best except for the brackets
2) CRD. not importing any more, besides they were way to thin
3) Hyde. well they are plastic, enough said
4) Force. out of Australia nice radiator guards but still no skid plate!
5) custom!! way to expensive!
please help cause we have big rocks here. Thanks Tom

How about Moose? Reasonably priced and heavy duty. Fit is decent but could be better. I opened up the rear hole and it helped.

Don't discount the Hyde guard. It works extremely well. I doubt you could put a hole in it to punch through a case. If you do, I think a hole in your case will be the least of your problems.

I tried the hyde and I did'nt get a hole in the case, but my frame was bent up pretty bad after taking it off. and my pipe burned out a nice little section out of it, and it was like grinding on my skateboard on a half pipe when I would go over a big log when it was wet. No thanks but thanks for the reply I will check into the Moose and let ya know what I find out. PS if anyone has a moose please let me know how they are Thanks Tom

I am considering Hyde as well as a B&B from http://www.bboffroad.com.au/. They don't list it but they have one for a FSE450. Not sure what your ride is. Theirs is $152AUS + shipping. Let me know what you find out about Moose.

Scorpion Racing in Canada has just finished their new Gas Gas plate. I am hoping to get one of the first ones within a week or 2.

I'm very interested in this subject also!
I will be in the market for an aluminum one that will fit an 08 nicely. It must have many and stout mounting points unlike the CRD version I have on my 06 that I ended up having to add extra mounting points to in the center that hooked the frame cradles to to keep it from peeling off. Most skids come with what I added in the first place. :mad:

If you can find a CRD, and have access to someone with a milling machine.... the stock alloy bracket (made from flat alloy bar stock) is way too soft and comes loose easily. I even stripped one bolt hole and it wasn't like I was reefing it down. A friend copied the stock piece from a piece of steel and it tightens up much better and doesn't move or vibrate now (or fall off like it did once). Its holding up pretty good and its had its share of rock bashing.

The CRD is way too thin, it's not just the brakets. It is almost half the thickness of the Moose Plate.
