    Skid Plate

    My new stainless skid plate is done and fitted. Its made out of 3mm instead of 6mm alloy so is alot stronger and about 3 x heavier ! Thanks to a guy called Pat who has a 1990 2.4TD who let me borrow his to get the pattern for my KZN130....enjoy......

      Cost is around £150 but i cant be sure as i had other work done as well. It was made by a local frendly fabrication company i know from my bike racing days. The pattern is stored in the laser cutting machine and the brackets are just copied. I bought the allen bolts from another supplier as the M10 bolts that go into the chassis are M10 fine and these are rare. So i used original bolts for the brackets and stainless M10 and M8 to mount the plate. Also theres enough room to re fit the air con rad since the pattern came off a 2.4 with air con.

      I would get some more made up but the last time i asked no one wanted to pay real money as they could buy a cheaper version with less detail, and the holes could have stainless mesh welded behind them for off roading. So i would want a few orders to take mine off again and get it all copied.

      The only thing i had to do is open up the 4 holes for the M10 bolts beacuse of the fit. This will be modded on any other plates.

      There you go...............
