Disclaimer: If you own a 2013-2018 CB500X model, these extra steps need to be followed.

• Protects crucial areas of the engine – oil pan, engine case, oil filter and the exhaust headers.  That’s a long list of very expensive parts to expose to any sort of damage that could potentially end your ride and leave you stranded.
• Uniquely designed vent system – Not only unique but very-well thought out. No unnecessary holes were designed on this bash plate. As a result, your engine will less likely to overheat when mud and all sorts of debris, mud from off-roading fly at the engine and get stuck between the skid plate and the engine/exhaust header.
• True off-road and adventure shape – We avoid designing skid plates that are shaped like boxes, have sharp edges and corners and will guaranteed to restrict your rides off road.
• 4mm thick laser cut aluminum – It’s thick enough to withstand potential damage, yet lightweight.
• Powder coated – combined with sandblasting it’s a killer combination to protect your product’s surface. No frills and tough just like your ADV/Dual Sport bike!
