What is the most recommended protection part to outfit your Suzuki DR650 for off-road, besides handguards?
That's right, a robust skid plate is a must to prevent a critical failure way out in the backcountry!
Unfortunately, it's still too common to see unprotected bikes suffering from rocks being thrown at the undercarriage, breaking crankcases, stripping drain bolts, or cracking case covers and leaving the rider stranded or simply ruining the trip.
Experience unmatched protection and performance with the Acerbis Offroad Skidplate, specifically designed for the Suzuki DR650. This rugged skidplate is crafted from high-quality polypropylene, providing a perfect balance of strength and lightweight durability.
You’ll still be able to access important areas thanks to the maintenance cutouts in the plate. For example, you can do an oil change without removing it.
Featuring a simple mounting system, it makes installation a breeze. Unlike aluminum skid plates, it operates much quieter and without affecting the frame's rigidity or flex. Its snug fit effectively prevents mud, dirt, rocks, and debris from accumulating between the skid plate and the motor.
Additionally, it’s a cost-effective choice, being less expensive than many aluminum or carbon fiber alternatives. Lightweight and durable, this skid plate is an essential upgrade for your offroad adventures!
