Why Do You Need A Skid Plate On Your Motorcycle?

A skid plate is designed to help protect the exposed lower areas of the engine and frame on motocross, enduro, trail and adventure bikes. This will help prevent a potential DNF in a race, leaving you stranded on trails or an expensive repair. At AS3 Performance we now offer 6 different types of skid plates, all with various different features and for different riding conditions. To learn more about our skid plates read our feature 'What is a skid plate? Why do you need one? And which one is right for your motorcycle?' where we provide detailed information about each skid plate and explain how it can help protect the various areas of your bike.

Skid Plates Aluminium FAQs

Is A Skid Plate A Good Investment?

The engine casings and the frame are two of the most expensive parts on any motorcycle and if they become damaged to the point where they need replacing the work involved in doing this can almost exceed the cost of the parts. By installing a skid plate you will minimise the chances of these parts getting damaged and the initial cost of the skid plate could be a fraction of the price of repairing the motorcycle.

Which Skid Plate Is Better For Motocross?

Most motocross riders prefer to use a small, light skid plate that protects the lower engine casings and lower frame only as this provides a high level of protection without a significant increase in weight. We stock a wide range of motocross style skid plates for all the leading manufacturers including Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha, KTM and Suzuki.

Can You Install A Skid Plate With Crash Bars

All of our skid plates are designed to fit alongside our range of crash bars to offer complete protection to the motorcycle. However if your bike has aftermarket crash bars installed or if they were an optional extra when you purchased the motorcycle we can't guarantee that both will be compatible. We will highlight this in the product description when we have the information.
