Manufactured in Europe from 8mm-thick High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), this plate is engineered to absorb violent trail impacts, returning to its original shape rather than permanently bending or denting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AXP design fully encloses the vulnerable lower engine block, shielding the water pump, exhaust system, and crankcases. To prevent severe impacts from transferring directly into the engine, high-density foam pads are supplied to act as a shock-absorbing buffer between the plastic plate and the engine block. Weighing in at just 4.85 lbs (2.2 kg), this HDPE skid plate is 30% to 40% lighter than equivalent alloy options while completely eliminating the loud, metallic ringing noise generated when rocks strike the bottom of the motorcycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e8mm HDPE Construction:\u003c\/b\u003e Premium High-Density Polyethylene plastic is incredibly strong, abrasion-resistant, and glides smoothly over rocks and logs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLightweight:\u003c\/b\u003e At 4.85 lbs (2.2 kg), it drops 30% to 40% of the weight compared to traditional aluminum adventure skid plates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eShock Absorbing Buffer:\u003c\/b\u003e Includes high-density adhesive foam pads that mount inside the plate to cushion impacts and prevent friction against the engine block.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eZero Vibration \u0026amp; Noise:\u003c\/b\u003e Eliminates the annoying metallic resonance and engine vibration amplification common with aluminum plates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIndependent Frame Mounting:\u003c\/b\u003e Engineered to mount directly to the motorcycle's frame, preserving access to the factory center stand mounting locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's in the Box:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1x AXP Racing 8mm HDPE Skid Plate (Black)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1x Set of High-Density Adhesive Foam Pads\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplete Mounting Hardware Kit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation Instructions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNote: The rear suspension linkage guard is sold separately under part number AX1774\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e2024–2026 – CFMOTO Ibex 450 \/ MT450\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eLinkage guard is sold separately:  \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003ca title=\"AXP Racing linkage guard that goes with the CFMOTO Ibex 450 skid plate.
