MOLECULE SKIDPLATE KTM GROUP 2023-26

Hand-built and family-owned in the USA. Our skidplates and glideplates are precision fit and custom designed for each specific bike.

Made from billet UHMW, our plates offer superior wear resistance compared to aluminum and even carbon steel. This material won’t crack, puncture, or let you down and, better yet, it’s self-lubricating, helping you slide over obstacles effortlessly. Don’t compare this to HDPE or aluminum; UHMW is lighter, slides better, and holds its shape.

For added protection, our optional one piece linkage guard helps you glide smoothly over rocks and logs. Whether you’re a hardcore off-road racer or a slow, technical backwoods rider, this feature makes a noticeable difference.

Features:

• Thermoformed from 1/4″ (6.35 mm) thick billet UHMW
• Unique shape reduces mud build-up and prevents weight gain
• Optional linkage guard with linkage damper pad
• Utilizes factory mounting points for easy installation
• Aluminum front mounting brackets included
• Billet oversized aluminum bushings included.
  Optional upgrade: stainless steel bushings
