Hello,
I believe this is my first post here. Sorry if this question has been answered in the past, but I am trying to find a "good" skidplate for my 2017 S10ES. I don't need a log, rock, curb bashing plate... but something substantial that won't poke holes in the crankcase if it gets hit as some plates seem to do. Some older threads talked about a Rumbux skidplate as well as their crash bars. However, their website does not list a skidplate for the S10.

Thank you for the guidance. I love, love, love my S10. Have 27,000 miles on it (I know, it's hardly broken in) and plan to ride backroads from Maryland to my brother's house in Denver this coming May.

Sincerely,
Jim

This is what they mentioned above. $499.99 for both pieces + free shipping. Just the skid plate is $254.99 + free shipping. TABASCO also makes one that is supposed to be great.

They do, on order.

Had a full Rumbux set fitted 5months ago.

From my back ground, $499 for both items + free shipping is unbelievable.... From a perspective of keeping there doors open, and anyone who might work there walk away with $5 in their pocket. It's excellent for for the customer, but the design, tooling, machines, consumables, shipping, taxes, import tariffs, overhead, Etc.......

If everyone had my experience and back ground "mind set",,,,,,,,,,, There advertising should say..... These are complementary @ $499......... LOL. Or "FREE" LOLOLOLO

They must have $10 in material in both parts.....

One and done............. Still the only protective part with a warranty.
Love mine I got used. Did you redesign for the cat, or do you require aftermarket exhaust for the 2014+?

We just use the low profile 12-13 exhaust. You gain about 2” of ground clearance by doing so.
