Fits 2017-2023 Kawasaki Versys-X300 models
SKU=319
United StatesQuality made product. Not difficult to install. There are a bunch of exposed parts on a stock x300 begging to get damaged even if you only mildly off road it. This skid plate covers all those vulnerable areas and looks the business doing it! I trimmed the bottoms of the stock plastic "guards " and reinstalled them after l installed the Ricochet skid plate and lt looks great that way. Thanks for a great product and it arrived quickly.
United StatesWhen I first grabbed it out of the box, I thought this is beefy. Further inspection revealed some beautiful welds and a much more quality piece than I was expecting. (A couple of forums for my Versys-X 300 quibbled about thickness and overall production quality.) The installation was simple to the point of being so obvious that the directions were not used. I did reinstall the factory plastics for a cleaner look. Only needed to trim a wee crescent around the front mounting rubber puck on the right side. I also have the Givi engine guards so I needed to supply my own longer engine mounting bolt. For future customers, supplying the appropriate length bolt, if they are running with Givi, would be very helpful. I also have the SW-Motech center stand and there is no interference. Some people say there is increased engine vibrations when installed. I did not notice an increase, probably cause the bike transfers all vibrations too well. Not much dampening on this rig. My only negative would be that it is much easier to remove the skid plate for oil changes than try to clean up when your oil filter drips and the draining oil defies physics and flows wherever. Overall I am very happy and confident in the quality and protection offered from this Skid plate.
United StatesI needed a second pair of hands to install, was not that hard to install. Very solid it has taken a pounding from hidden rocks in the pasture. I have bent it and dented it and the engine and surrounding frame is still good. I would recommend this bash plate
United StatesWorks like it should. Very happy about the quality.
AustraliaWas fairly easy to fit. I like the thickness of the plate, I didn't find any other skid plate built as heavy, and it was exactly what I needed.
