Oh, so far, ims tank, HD skid, cycra hand guards, g2 throttle, link skid(slavens most likely) and still unsure of rad guards. Emperor racing listing is odd. May go that way. What am I missing?? Fuel ??

Steve don't get the Slaven's guard. There is a pic here somewhere of one broken and I saw another on a bike at a race falling apart. Better to just get the plastic one until you can swing the Fastway.

I doubt they will. They did for the '12 GG linkage because it was a separate pull rod design easily redesigned. I think for the PA rocks there, that I've been on with you, the Obie will be OK. Even here on Craig's 300 its OK, just careful on the bigger stuff and embedded rocks after dropping off small ledges. The Fastway just lets you ignore rocks and smash through.

I have a ricochet on my 350 and it's solid.. but kind of boring. If I would do it again I'd get this skid plate.

Boring? Since when do rocks care about fashion in a skid plate? :lol: The 4strokes are easy, most all are decent just pad the frame rails and your good to go.

I think I'm going with end eng skid and disc guards. The skid has nicer mounts. Look a bit more stout than the hardware on some of the others and within $20. still undecided on rad guards.
