250rbanshee Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Had my brother machine this for me. Made out of steel instead of aluminum. It's a little heavy but it will take some major abuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
special06shee Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Wow! Thats a chunk of steel!! How much does it weigh?? Thats gotta be a ton of rotating mass! Looks good tho!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
250rbanshee Posted March 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Not sure on the weight...not much more than the factory skid plate that goes under there. I wanted something that can take a beating since this is a woods/trail bike and it'll see a few harescrambles too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprinklerman Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Being that its rotating mass,i bet it makes a bigger difference than a stock skid just sitting there along for the ride though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 need one to protect the rotor now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider1026 Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 I like that. Nice work. On a woods bike rotating mass isnt such an issue.. I think all you drag racers/duners etc. forget about that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheerider1026 Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 That thing scared of water? And soap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
250rbanshee Posted March 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 The bike? Lol yea I'm about to go give her a good wash. I clear coated the sprocket guard. The rotational mass may help keep wheel spin down and help traction in the woods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider1026 Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Its better to have that extrea mass than to be sitting a mile into the woods with a bent rear sprocket.. Is it not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee352savage Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Why not use an oversized sprocket? That way you have the teeth to help get over things like logs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider1026 Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Hmm.. Seems the chain would be hitting the logs, not the teeth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way you have the teeth to help get over things like logs.What are you talking about?I think that's a awesome piece! One for the brake rotor would be sweet.
