Mr Terminator -> Center skidplate... (5/2/2008 3:19:14 AM)
Does anyone know if there's a center skidplate available for the Genesis/GST....??? [)]

Hi Mr Terminator, I'm not sure, but i made one for mine, it has been excellent so far, skidded over the top of a pile of sharp rocks a month or so back, (when my GST was running) and if it wasn't for my home made skid plate, it may have damaged something, cause the skid plate ended up with some big scratches in it. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful

HG do/can you get some pictures to show? I'm thinking of making something up since I messed up the plastic front shaft when I high sided on a dirt pile.

Here's what I got to bend for my center skidplate, 6"x24" 16 gauge sheet metal. Now the fun part is that I only have a dremal to cut it[:)], that's going to take some work. It's going to take some time but when I'm done I'll post some pictures. Now it's time to find something to use to bend it. When it stops raining I'm going to see if there are any poles around here with the right curve to it[:D]. Unless the 12 or 14 gauge metal my friend has will work for a wheelie bar, I might use the scraps from that for the wheelie bar and just make a suport brace to stop the flex.

burningpoo -> RE: Center skidplate... (5/9/2008 10:42:27 PM)
HarleyGal how did you bend the metal for your center skid plate? Are those the only 2 mounting points? Is your mount flush or is the edge ground off? I'm thinking of making 2 mounts for the center, but I'm unsure if I'll get that done. My other thought just walked away with the dog...
