Very nice. As long as the welder is out, tie the aluminum pipe guard into it and you'll have something special! Actualy make it a bolt on arangement for easy R&R (the Hyde's biggest downfall).

For the mud collection, I was thinking of making a sheet of rubber, that goes from the top of the plate to above the exhaust port, someone incorporate it into how the plate is mounted, so the rubber is held firm, but isnt in the way if the plate needs to be removed. |

Essentially duplicate the functionality of the Hyde in the aluminum design, but have the pipe guard section removable. Weld braces on the pipe guard, and have them bolt to the skid plate in a way thats fairly easy to remove. This is the next best thing to a frame mounted cage in pipe protection. I have a Hyde and I'm still using my original pipe, and its nasty here.
For mud just use the foam. The Moose foam is nice because its heat resistant and can be compressed tight up againast the pipe, even the header near the cylinder without worry. I'll have to try and find the commmercial equivalent. Its a course open cell, so the water goes right through, with the mud sticking on the surface. |

you could try to incorporate something like this for your pipe:

That guard should be called the cobra guard for obvious reasons.

Is that the Whipps guard? Eventually I may go with one of those.

That pipe guard looks heavy.. I can see it is made out of steel..
How much does it weigh?

The alloy spine thats on my pipe now is pretty flimsy and doesnt really protect the pipe from much other that roost. So if I was to try incorporate a pipe guard into the design it would be similar to the one in that article swazi posted, that will be for after iv made radiator guards and a pv cover though. Im making 2 extra bash plates for friends to buy at a reasonable price. I have access to all the necessary equipment, alloy welders, benders, guillotines etc.
cheers for the replies |

Remember to put a hole to drain water from crank case.
