Which Skids

Ok, as some of you might know, I need Skid plates fast! Should I get PRM Skids or White Brother Skids? Can I order the skids right from WB or do I have to order them from a dealer?

i don't know where you can get skids at but my vote is on the prm, there grab bars hold up rea strng.
Ok...I saw how cheap the White Brothers nerfbars are...so I might get those...
I say PRM I've never heard a bad thing about them. The only time ur ever going to have with their plates is in the swingarm, but thats if ur trying to hits rocks or r a rocky area or a REALLY rough area. Thats when i would get a Pro-tec steel skidplate.

Ok...im going to hopefully order the PRM skids tonight...
im going with pro armor, they are more expensive but beefier. their a arm guards are awesome
I hear Pro-armor are good but they don't look good to me. If u go 2 dirtwheels.com they have a pic of a Z with ful protection and its looks chinsy but i doubt they are.

That Z with the parts on it has all the suzuki parts...they are very expensive too...by my budget they are...lol...

For $15 more than Suzuki swingarm skid u can get the Pro-tec stainless steel plate. If u look at the pro-armor swingarm skid i posted is it just the angle cuz it doesn't look like its covering the brake rotor.

well the back of it is stil kind of open...and i take it it is the same with the chain and sprocket...
I have a PRM on mine and love it. It also covers the shock linkage excellent. It actually has slightly more ground clearance over the stock plastic :D
Thanks for telling me that...ill order the skids this weekend or monday...i didnt tonight because i went riding...
Sweet, I think i'll be going PRM if i don't have someone makes some.

I am also trying to decide between PRM and Pro Armor???

Anyone seen both???

Any feedback/info???

I can't beleive that the Pro Armor does not cover the rotor, but that is what it looks like in the pic???

Thanx,

The Pro Armor swing arm skid does not cover the rear shock linkage...so it has two plates...PRM covers the linkage with the swing arm skin...the PRM skids are about $70 less then Pro Armor.
i have the PRM on my 300 and i plan on putting PRM on my Z too. They are awsome!!!

That is my quad on the Pro Armor website. The swingarm skid does in fact cover the rotor and sprocket very well. My friend and I have been riding with them and hitting as many rocks as possible and they have held up perfectly. It is the strongest that I have ever seen. The reason for the seperate skid for the rear shock was to save weight and the shock linkage moves in motion which could cause contact with a 1 piece skid.
So, is there a noticeable weight difference between the PRM and Pro Armor???

Anyone have anymore info comparing the two??

I am still trying to decide which to go with??

Thanx,
LOBE
