Description
Your BMW R 1200 GS sits low on the trail, which means your engine and undercarriage take the hits. Rocks, stumps, logs — they all find their way up there. This Ricochet skid plate wraps around your engine and shields it from impact, keeping your bike rideable instead of busted. It bolts on clean with no drilling or permanent changes to the bike.
What You're Getting
One aluminum skid plate and all the mounting hardware you need to bolt it on. That's it — no hunting for fasteners or making extra trips to the shop.
Build and Materials
This plate is cut from 5052 H32 aircraft-grade aluminum, .160 inch thick. It's solid enough to take a real beating without being so heavy you notice it. It ships with a clear anodize finish that stops rust and holds up over time.
Black Powder Coat Option
If you want it blacked out instead of the clear finish, you can add a black powder coat at checkout. Just know that adds about 1 to 2 weeks to how long it takes to ship.
