It looks as if the suspension was bottoming out, apart from that it looked ok, I didn't buy it to do jumps as I wanted it to go to morocco and do 2700 km, I don't think it will get any worse than what you did in the vid, if it did then I would say the bike would deal with it , maybe I not me though

Think I've asked this before, has any one found an alternative bash plate to fit, the plastic one will not last

i have looked at XR400 and DR650 skid plates but its hard to tell without having one to offer up under the frame as to whether it could fit...........i think it would need a friendly fabricator who likes a challenge with access to CNC alloy and a lot off coffee

Yeah mine is cut. TBH when I had the rear wheel off recently and took the chain guard off I really didn't think anything of it. Mine is certainly fixed in there solid enough (thumbs)

"The trails of the world be countless, and most of the trails be tried.

You tread on the heels of many, till you come where the ways divide.

And one lies safe in the sunlight, and the other is dreary and wan, Yet you look aslant at the Lone Trail, and the Lone Trail lures you on....

....Bid good-bye to sweetheart, bid goodbye to friend, The Lone Trail, the Lone Trail, follow to the end.

Tarry not, and fear not, chosen of the true;

Lover of the Lone Trail, The Lone Trail waits for you"
