    I'm curious too! Been looking for a better place to mount foglights and this might fit the bill. How long has it been available?

    I'd be interested in this also.
    The only other bump skid I'm aware of is from Halo, and that's a hard acrylic, basically to add under body lights, not much protection.
    I read the instructions for the Slingmods Bumper. The rear mounts to the frame. I couldn't find anything about supporting the front.
    If it ain't broke, don't break it.

    I saw that bumper a while back. I think it's the ugliest thing for the price. I'm sure it'll do the job but aesthetically it needs to improve.

    Be careful with the Out Front bumpers. The ones we've seen do not mount to anything substantial. If you do much more than tap something with one, it will still collapse into the front of your bike and break whatever it is mounted to. They appear to give you much more protection than they actually do.

    Spyderpops makes a great line of BumpSkids. These offer real protection for the areas they cover. Here is just one example. These are very tough Polycarbonate. Acrylic is pretty fragile.
