Couldn't you drill a new hole in your current skid plate?

I have a Flatland skid plate with aligned holes, but I think it makes a mess when you drain the tranny with it on. I just remove it since it takes about a 1 minute with two front bolts. Then, I have full access and drain it easily. I like to lean the bike from side-to-side after it's almost fully drained. That way, I get more out of the engine. If the skid plate was on, it would run all over the skid plate when leaned. Also, I get to clean out all of the mud and leaves that collect between the skid plate and engine. Just my $0.02.
