Default 2010 Footpegs and Skidplate

Hi All

I am looking to add new footpegs to my 2010 ec200 and a light weight skidplate. Any suggestion?

I have just ordered the moose hybrid footpegs, will let you know how they are as soon as i have them, and for skid plate i think the hyde skid plate is the best value for money out there

I put Moose foot pegs on my EC 200. They have a larger area for your foot and are offset slightly down and back to give a little more room to a tall guy. They seem really sturdy but they are not lightweight.

Blanc, I used to run Raptor titanium footpegs on my EC250, great peg, excellent grip & balance. Also I had a CRD enduro plate, easy to fit & took alot of abuse.

Also try this, they save your pipe from dents & are simple to fit.

+1 on the hyde plate/pipeguard combo.

I've got the Hyde plate on my '10 and so far, so good. I did enlarge the oil plug access hole, so you can actually remove the plug, without droppng the plate.

I just can't warm up to the pipe guard though, because it's so damn ugly.

i kindof like the dead armadillo wrapped around the motor look lol. it does do a good job on rocks and such, im not sure about side impacts though. havnt had anything bad happen yet, so ill keep crossin my fingers. i may rebuild the front clamp though, i had to bend it to the right shape when i first got it. and ive heard the threaded holes come loose after a while.so i may just make a piece of plat steel and weld some nuts to it. over all i like it very much. a definite must is something to block mud from the front tire. the pipe guard is one giant mud trap without. chicken wire or foam.

for the record ... I am not a fan of the hyde guard/pipe combo the pipe gets dented through the guard and it traps and transports most of th e mud you drive through.

If you have a 2t i would say go hyde sump guard and P3 carbon fibre exhaust guard

I think that if you hit something hard enough to dent the pipe through the Hyde you will break a CF guard and/or bend the header. I've wrecked pipes with CF guards few times in the past. You can live with minor dents, they do nothing to performance, plus they are easy to fix. Kinked headers are another matter.

We need a cage, thats modular to a skid plate.

Default pegs and skid plate

Current late model YZ pegs will fit so you have many options. I have hyde standard skid plate that works well for my use, light, mounts easy e-nuf, and holds up well in sand.
