    Default Made 4 skid plates today for RS/GS

    Had a buddy come over today and we made 4 of them. Two for us and two for the wife's bikes. He had made a template and worked out great. Made different that Spyder PoPs, but works great and looks good. Will take a picture tomorrow of it. I found a place to make it out of 3/8 inch HDPE. Enough to make 4 skid plates material and shipping was $88.00. Very pleased with the finished product.

    Default Might do this myself ...

    ... maybe soon.

    I have the SpyderPops bumpskid already installed, but, the back of beyond, campside access, pothole ridden, gravel and rock ridden road we did a couple of weeks ago did a real number on it --- the Spyder bottomed out at least a half dozen times.

    Deb, on the back, was NOT amused !

    It for sure did it's job though (Thank you Spyderpops) and I'll use IT as a template should the need arise to replace it.
