If I found an alternative skid plate that was superior in protection to the OEM (thinking outside the box), that did not required drilling into the frame (coloring ouside the lines), I would do it.
I don't plan on skidding-over anything, but flying road debris can cause serious damage; that is what I would want protection from.
Chunks of tires, retreds, wire, metal, tree limbs, lumber, const. debris with nails, antlers, etc., bouncing up into a plastic fuel tank....sometimes, the debris cannot be avoided.
But drilling the frame to install anything (other than mounting a 30MM Vulcan) would be a big NO-NO.
Thanks, looking into after market.
