any one know of anybody selling a skid plate for a 2006 450x?

I've seen the new ones for $75 +.... just wondering if there is anything out there for less...

I wish I was loaded.

Already overspent on the 450X, but I talked the wife into letting me get it! So I'm stoked...

Have you bought rad guards yet? They are a must have, I bought mine before my first ride.

Do you really want plastic protecting $600.00 radiators or $2000.00+ motor?
