Guys,
Having taken my KDX 200 on it's first sizeable ride today, I find myself looking for a skidplate. I didn't case on any rocks, but a few of them had me considering the possibility!
Will skidplates for KX's fit, or will I be looking for KDX specific? If some KX year will fit, I can look for a used unit. If KDX specific, what sites have the best pricing on aftermarket parts? I'll probably be picking up a PC pipe, or maybe FMF Torque.
I've also got questions about a few other goodies...What are the thoughts on the Acerbis/UFO plastic-AL reinforced handguards? I came close to clipping a few trees today, and that had me pondering the sturdyness of the stock guards. :| I've had several MX guys warn me away, saying "bark busters" are a great way to break an arm (getting caught between the grip/bar and the "barkbuster"). However, all my woods riding buddies have them and love them.
Lastly...do the plastic front rotor covers serve a functional purpose, or are they cosmetic only? I'll spend money to protect my bike, but I don't want to spend money for looks only.
Thanks for the help,
Brandon
