2010 TE250 Skid Plate

Hi all.
As with most bikes, I didnt find the new original skid plate husky provided with the 2010 protective enough.
So, same as previous times, I ended up building two skid plates (for myself, and the demo bike in at my dealership). I tried to keep with the original design, and improve protection for engine and frame.
Here are some pics:





3 rides on it, and on this next pic you can even notice it already saved a ding on the lower left frame...


Here is the one I did for my previous Husky (08 TE250):



Last pic is the plate itself even before cleaning:


I know... I need to change my sig...

Nice job, looks like it will work. What brand is the Turbo Diesel in the background? Chris

Nice skid plated. Is that a KTM orange rear sprocket on that pretty bike?

Very nice. I especially like how your skid plate helps protect the frame by the foot pegs. The first time out with my new bike I took a pretty good hit there.

That sprocket is actually gold, just looks kinda orange in the pic.

Toyota. Thats the short model. We also have the longer (5 doors) version.

Its kinda goldish orange, but not as orange as my friend's ktm. Same brand as the one that comes on the 6 days ktm's models. Got it in Spain last summer for 50 Euros.

That was the exact intenssion. When I got my 08 I was promissed I'll get it with a nice skid plate that protect that area of the frame. Their manufacturer never got arround to make any decent skid plate, nor to my satisfation or theirs... After large hits on both sides, I took action and created the one for the 08. It was 5mm thick and sat there like a glove. They wanted me to manufacture some for them, which I'm still considering, but for now they still deliver bikes with the old stock of what they have.
For the new 250 model, I started making the design on the bike, at the dealership, 2 days before it was ready for delivery (license and such). I built 1 more unit for them (as per their request), which got me an extra discount...

any plans for more 2010 models?? I know i would buy one just for the reason of protecting the wings on the frame,my 2009 TXC have taken a pounding

Accept for the new 2010 250s, the rest 2010 (310,450,510) are the same as the 08/9. So, it looks like I got 2010 pretty much covered. Only thing is I'm still not sure if I want to get into this commercially, but I'm checking on it...

I will need one for my 2010 TXC250, if you make another one ill buy it from you,I dont need one for the 09,its already had the frame squashed

Great skid!!!
If you got another one I will buy, no doubt about it.
I have just a minor scratch un my frame, but I have to be very carefull.(you know new bike feeling).
