Manufactured from 8mm thick High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) plastic, this skid plate is designed to absorb massive trail impacts without permanently bending, denting, or deforming like traditional aluminum guards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HDPE construction offers significant advantages for adventure riders exploring technical terrain. The polymer material naturally glides over rocks and logs, drastically reducing the chance of hanging up the motorcycle. Furthermore, the thick plastic completely eliminates the annoying vibration and engine noise reflection typically experienced with large aluminum skid plates, resulting in a much quieter ride at highway speeds. It mounts securely to the chassis using a robust, multi-point steel bracket system.\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 Highly impact-resistant polymer absorbs heavy blows and returns to its original shape without permanently deforming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLightweight:\u003c\/b\u003e Weighs up to 40% less than an equivalent aluminum bash plate while offering superior impact absorption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSlide Factor:\u003c\/b\u003e The specialized plastic material glides smoothly over obstacles instead of biting or digging in like aluminum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAcoustic Dampening:\u003c\/b\u003e Eliminates the rattling and metallic engine noise reflection common with metal bash plates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eComprehensive Coverage:\u003c\/b\u003e Wraps around the lower block to protect the water pump, engine cases, and exhaust headers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDirect Mounting:\u003c\/b\u003e Bolts securely to the frame using the included heavy-duty steel mounting brackets without requiring permanent modifications.\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 Moose Racing 8mm HDPE Skid Plate (Black)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplete Steel Mounting Bracket System\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll Required Mounting Hardware\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstruction Sheet\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.

However, HDPE plastic has rapidly taken over the segment for excellent reasons. When you high-center a fully loaded Ibex 450 on a log or a jagged rock, an aluminum plate tends to bite into the obstacle, halting your momentum. HDPE acts like a heavy-duty cutting board, allowing the motorcycle to physically slide over the obstruction. When an aluminum plate takes a catastrophic hit, it bends and stays bent, often making it impossible to line up the mounting bolts during your next oil change. HDPE flexes under pressure and returns to its molded shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Acoustic Upgrade:\u003c\/b\u003e Parallel-twin engines can generate a significant amount of mechanical clatter. A large aluminum skid plate acts exactly like a speaker cone, bouncing all that noise directly up into the rider's helmet. Because HDPE absorbs sound waves rather than reflecting them, installing this Moose Racing plate will noticeably quiet the engine noise in your cockpit, making long highway liaisons much more comfortable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0622\/5720\/1317\/files\/MADE_IN_FRANCE.jpg?v=1744046246\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart Number: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e0506-2614\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Moose Racing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48266539630757,"sku":"MOOSE-SKD-PLT-IBEX-450","price":295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0622\/5720\/1317\/files\/Moose_Adventure_Skid_Plate_CFMOTO_Ibex_450_0506-2614.png?v=1789106077","url":"https:\/\/www.tmbrmoto.com\/products\/moose-racing-skid-plate-cfmoto-ibex-450-mt450","provider":"TMBR MOTO","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
