We recognize any product is a compromise - manufacturers have to balance key features, materials selection, ease of installation, ease of removal for maintenance, development costs, production costs, related shipping costs to the consumer as well as where the product is made. Based on our 16 years of development experience, we feel we have struck an ideal balance with our new \u003cstrong\u003eUltima\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ete Skid Plate\u003c\/strong\u003e for the Aprilia Tuareg 660.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLike many adventure bikes these days, the Tuareg does not have a cradle frame to attach the skid plate, so we had to get creative with the mounting points. We were able to pick up on the frame at the rear of the skid plate as well as tie into the crash bar mounting points to provide extremely strong support for the skid plate. In addition the skid plate removes with six bolts for easy maintenance access.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe also made the skid plate compatible with the OEM center stand and Hepco Becker upper crash bars (others have not been tested yet).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSome riders may say \"\u003cem\u003emy 660 already has a skid plate on it from the factory\u003c\/em\u003e\" - our only question is how much faith do you want to put in that 'aluminum foil\" stock skid plate to prevent you from damaging your motor and having to walk out of the backcountry?

The 3\/16\" (4.76mm) 5052 Aluminum we use in our skid plate will give a bit on impact, lessening the force transmitted to the mounting points as well as being less likely to crack, unlike the harder materials used by some of our competitors.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease see our \u003cstrong\u003e\"Nuts, Bolts and Benefits\"\u003c\/strong\u003e below for more details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWe have two different fitments based on the crash bars being used on the bike:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFITMENT A\u003c\/strong\u003e: No Crash Bars, Hepco Becker crash bars (recommended) or other crash bars that mount against the frame of the bike.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFITMENT B\u003c\/strong\u003e: OEM Crash bars.

Heading outbfor another adventure on my Aprilia Tuareg. Changed oil before I left and myst say your design for dropping the skid plate is fantastic. 4 bolts and that was it! I was hesitant to drop the kind of cash it took to buy this but the old adage “you get what you pay for” once again hold true. Riding with 4 buddies this weekend and will try and sell some more skid plates for you!

The 3\/16\" (4.76mm) 5052 Aluminum we use in our skid plate will give a bit on impact, lessening the force transmitted to the mounting points as well as being less likely to crack, unlike the harder materials used by some of our competitors.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease see our \u003cstrong\u003e\"Nuts, Bolts and Benefits\"\u003c\/strong\u003e below for more details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e                        NUTS, BOLTS \u0026amp; BENEFITS                       \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComprehensive Engine Coverage\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\"Sized Right\" to cover keep major components safe such as the engine block, header pipes and catalytic converter.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlush Mount Hardware\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eWe never use hardware that protrudes from the skid plate in highly probably impact areas (like the bottom!!).
