Skid Plate for the BMW R 1250 GS /GSA - AltRider

Available on Pre-order/Back Order. Check out how that works here

If you've already installed the AltRider Crash Bars, mounting brackets are not required. Choose "Without Brackets" in the dropdown to the right.

With 136 horsepower, the R 1250 GS's updated water boxer motor is an impressive machine. All that power flying down the trail can produce some tough hits to the bottom of a 550-pound motorcycle, requiring much heftier protection than the thin stock plate.

Like the AltRider crash bars, the AltRider skid plate was updated for the R 1250 GS. To maintain greater ground clearance, a flat plate of 3/16 inch (4.76 mm) anodized aluminium is utilized, with no bolts on the bottom side to snag. This patent-pending mounting system allows the move from the AltRider original corrugated design, saving over 1 inch (25.4 mm) of ground clearance. The plate was designed to be extremely narrow at the bottom to maintain the great cornering ability of the bike. It is a one-piece unit that provides tire to tire protection. From the leading front corner of the headers to just before the rear tire, the entire bottom side of the motor is shielded from impact. Even the catalytic converter is safeguarded. There are no gaps in protection or plastic pieces to break and no parts to continually repurchase--just one smooth 3/16 inch (4.76 mm) plate that provides complete coverage. In an effort to maintain simplicity, AltRider designed the skid plate so it doesn’t require removal to change the oil on the bike.
