T-Rex Racing Engine Guard Crash Cage Skid Plate Combo - Black for Suzuki 2017-2023 DL650 / V-Strom 650

This purchase is for a set of engine guards and skid plate for the above bike models.The guards feature two mounting points on each side and are braced together in the middle to increase its strength. Our engine guards also come with replaceable ultra high molecular weight polyethylene pucks that can be inexpensively replaced. Think of them as protection for your protection. The material of the puck is made of UHMW-PE (ultra high molecular weight polyethylene), a tough plastic with good strength, wear resistance and dimensional stability. It is more dimensionally stable than Nylon and used in many industrial ball bearing and friction reducing applications. Compared to Delrin, it is softer but tougher. Delrin is harder but more brittle. It is an ideal material for frame sliders since it can absorb more impact force onto itself and therefore reduce the impact on the frame and engine. The slider pucks can be inexpensively replaced in case of a low-side. The skid plate is designed to minimize damage and protect your bike from dirt, mud, and other debris. The skid plate is CNC cut from a solid 3 mm sheet of aircraft grade aluminum. The plate is then tig welded and finished with black powder coating to increase durability. We use highest grade commercially available 12.9 (177,000 psi in tensile strength) wherever possible. Rest assured that you are getting the best material commercially available.

• Materials: UHMW-PE (ultra high molecular weight polyethylene), aircraft grade aluminum, and steel tubing finished in durable black powder coat
• No cut or plastic fairing modifications required
