Hi everyone, I have been looking for the company that makes this skid plate but haven’t found it. Do you know where I can find it? Or who sells it?

I believe that photo is of a prototype model that Yamaha never put into production. The skid plate does look great but I think still fastened to the sump so not real practical for rock jumping. As pretty as it is, that saddle auxiliary fuel tank never made it to production either.

Thanks a lot for your response, that was what I thought. There is still a similar skid plate I would like to find and it seems it actually got into production here is the picture. Do you know where I can find it?

Welcome to the forum @chechoggomez . Please take a minute to add your location to your profile. It adds context to your posts and helps others give you better answers.

Your second photo is also a non-production bike at a bike show, covered in unobtainable parts that were made by hand.

You may find the 'World Crosser' accessories have some of the look you want. Are you looking to dress up your bike, or make it more functional? If the latter, the Worldcrosser parts are mostly for show and to deflect small stones. You will want a skid plate that is not mounted to the cast aluminum sump if you want a functional one that will survive large hits. There are only a few like that at the moment.

Ride On ADV - This was the most expensive, and also totally bomb proof. (not sure if these are still available. Contact the owner via PM on this forum, user name ~TABASCO~ )

I'm pretty sure I've seen some pictures of custom one-offs from TABASCO. I'm thinking that if you can think it, he can build it.

Thanks Sierra. This is very true. If this gentleman is interested in my services I can build about anything. We have built prototype and production parts for many industries. The skid plate (and parts) are made in Texas,USA and are hand made. Most of our ADV parts we make also come with a warranty. Who else has a warranty?o_O
