Suggest you stay away from speed bumps and don't run up curbs. Haven't heard of many adding skid plates to their frames.

Make them if you really need them.I always say if you ain't scraping you aint riden!:D
 
sometime you can't avoid the bottom scrapping. Been thinking about getting the bottom rails painted with Rhino coat or Line-X (tastfully of course). You can't see the bottom so what the heck. Not worried about bending the frame just about scapping the paint to the metal and rust setting in.

:roll::roll: I didnt know anyone still used those.........:loony::loony: mad dog maybe a group buy............:roll:
Damn those things bring back memories and I'm not sure their all good. As I recall those were used so as to not scrape up the wide-wide white walls on the 63 Buick Electra 225(Duece and a Quarter!). If memory serves me.:eek:
Now to install them on a Big Dog would require a person of special skills.
Is RubWhore in the building?:roll::roll:

Saw a guy took stainless pipe. Cut / "split it" down the center and attached to the bottom of the frame looked fine. Couldn't really see it. It was very thin.

Plastic/rubber tubing would work, just need to figure out a clean way to secure it. I had something in mind a while back but can't remember what the item was. It's a plastic item that is design to wrap around 3 sides of a tube with the bottom portion being flat. I wish I could remember what it is and where I saw it. :bang:

I was trying to figure out how to get titanium to line the bottom of the frame rails.

I have heard it looks real pretty at night.

I think I saw lower frame covers in the J&P catalog that used double sided tape.
If I recall correctly it was a Dave Perowitz design.

If you have a 2009 K9 and is looking for skid plates, I think it is a good idea to see this list of body accents. This list will provide you skid plates and other motorcycle body accents available which can be helpful in improving the performance of your bike.
