Hey Kook, Very cool bike. It's got a stealth look to it. Thanks for posting the pictures. If any of the guys with HP2's out there that have puchased skidplates from me could post a picture I would appreciate it. Ernie

Got one for the 950 yet?

Twin headlight Ernie · 11-15-2006, 02:37 PM

I've been asked a few times to make a skidplate for the KTM 950 adventure. I hate to say it but I've just been too busy. The skidplates for the beemers alone take up most of my spare time. I'm actualy taking a break right now just to work on my own bikes. Maybe someday. Thanks for thinking of me anyhow. Ernie

Glad to you hear you like the skidplate. Thanks for sending the picture. I printed off a copy and added it to my collection. Ernie

Twin headlight Ernie · 11-28-2006, 01:22 PM

Hey J.T. I sent the skidplates for your GS adventure UPS ground yesterday. You might even have them by the end of the week. Let me know when you get them installed. Or better yet, post a picture. Thanks Ernie

Hey Ernie,

I just got my skidplates from the UPS man yesterday, and installed them last night. They look great, and installed easily. Its amazing how much better they look than the stock piece of swiss-cheese skidplate that comes on the bike. Thanks again!

Jeff

Hey Jeff, Glad to hear you received the skidplates OK. I just started work on a dozen more this last weekend. My wife had to work on Sunday so it left me with some quality shop time. Ernie

Bonebag · 12-05-2006, 05:37 PM

Hey Ernie...Hope all is well. I didn't get to the Crud this fall..I was way too hung over to ride

And that's pretty bad..Anyway..still love your skidplates..saved my ass this summer on the pipeline up north

Take Care.

I got em' Ernie, AWESOME product. Make OEM look like they belong on a tampon. They, along w/ alot of other stuff for the bike are at powder coater's right now. Pics to come.

Thanks, and if anyone is on the "fence" about these...PULL THE TRIGGER!!!'

Hey Ernie, Nice write up in the owners news! I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be getting one. I'm getting a piece of aluminium to try my hand at making a top box. I was thinking if there was enough left I might try making a skid plate myself,but probably waste alot of time and wind up throwing it away and getting yours anyway.
