    Well the bike build has made some progress , front springs installed, (air would have been nice :banghead: ) , handguards installed , bars moved forward. The question I keep wondering is do I go with a fugly Emperor Skid plate and not have to get pipe guard and flange protector , or go with a standard skid plate , pipe guard , and flange protector ?I ride single track , slow, rocky, rooty, washed out , tree infested single track ? What do you guys think , pros and cons ?

    I've heard really great things about the AXP plastic plates. I don't care for the emperor combo. Don't like metal and don't want to deal with cleaning that out.

    I have a carbon fiber guard for the expansion chamber but that's just to protect from small dings. Kind of look at them as a consumable anyway lol

    SXS. AXP. TMD the first 2 have built in linkage guards, with TMD you can add an extension like Obie for a link guard , all of these slide and glide nicely over stuff

    I like how the plastic plates don't stick to logs like the aluminum ones do, also the reduced noise factor is a plus. The AXP would be perfect for the rocks and logs in Missouri.

    also the high impact plastic allow the frame to stay live, and free to flex, less noise as well.

    I have ordered flange protector , and carbon pipe guard , in the next few weeks will order SXS skid plate. ( The husky may have depleted my play budget for a bit :lol:.)
