Hey Trikers
Just trying to get a feel on if there is any need / interest in a new production Tri-Z aluminum Skid Plate? I'm looking at producing some but I will have a considerable up front cost to get tooling and production started.
The plate would be just shy of .25 inch thick aluminum. The base would be bent in two places to take in account the angle from the back under the sprocket and disk brake and then up to the swingarm. There would also be two vertical pieces welded on for the rear bold connectors.
These would not be identical to the PRM or OMF skids that were produced in the past and would be a new design.
Initial costs would be somewhere around $100 - $125 but quantities past an initial run of 50 would get a lower cost.
I'll upload some pictures of a mocked up version later for some visuals..
Basically, just trying to see if there is enough interest to even continue down this path.
Thanks!
