As for the skid plate on our new
bike, we're thankful that KTM
has included a skid plate on this
model, but our rocky New England
loca on requires more protec on
than the factory plate offers. E
Line's Carbon Fiber/Kevlar compos-
ite skid plates are molded to the
exact shape of the frame and wrap
around the engine offering more
protec on than the factory unit.
We've been running E Line skid
plates for years and we appreciate
how they don't ring like an alumi-
num plate. With Kevlar-reinforced
construc on, E Line's skid plates
protect the frame rails much be er
than a plas c plate.
Pipe guards are always a high-
ly debated topic. Some choose
not to run one but let's face it,
if you're riding in rocky terrain,
you're bound to smash your pipe
eventually. For those who prefer
to run a pipe guard, there are
many op ons. The less expensive
guards are suscep ble to packing
with mud and increasing weight in
the process. E Line's pipe guards
fit ght to the pipe, snapping into
place with zero room for mud and
dirt to accumulate. As a bonus,
they look gorgeous.
E Line Fork Guards and Registra-
on Wrap. Comple ng the pack-
age, we opted for a set of E Line
Fork Guards to protect the upper
fork tubes from rocks and rash.
They are feather-light and snap in
place with zero tools required. E
Line's Registra on Wrap protects
the fork tube between the clamps
while providing a nice spot to dis-
play your trail or event s cker.
