i have a White Brothers heavy duty skid plate. great protection and mounts using existing skid plate bolt holes which install a breeze and easy to take on and off for cleaning every now and then. :tup:

I used the Moose racing skid plate bought locally. When i oredered from Thumpertalk once they shipped UPS and the Brokerage fees made the purchase not worthwhile. The moose racing unit has stood up well and installed easily. Shop local whenever possible.

actually the fees for US shipping are only 20 bucks for regular size package, i tried local the pricing isn't that great (almost double on some things) and either is the product selection.
I grabbed the TT skid plate, case savers, unabiker rad guards, zeta hand guards and protectors, the LED tail light kit, pivot foot pegs, JD jet kit, dunlop 606 tires, new sprockets, ect. Used TT and Langston Racing for my purchaseswhen the canadian dollar was par, I love keeping it local but it almost feels like your getting ripped off. I also like the ease of adding things to the shopping cart and checking out, there ain't much in Courtenay as far as DRZ parts availability. I also like looking on the internet for part comparason and reviews.

When i ordered from TT i paid the price and the shipping only to be notified i had to pay an extra $50 when i went to pick it up. i told them i had already paid shipping when they explained that it was UPS's get rich Brokerage fees. I know many others that have been screwed by UPS. For this reason i refuse to shop online with any Company that will only ship with UPS. I am sure that many companies are losing tons of business because of UPS but they don't seem to care as long as there are unknowledgeable customers still buying.

Have you checked out our localy made ones. Scorpion is what I have on mine and I find that they are well made and intuitive in design. They have no bolts sticking out from their skid plates and glide over logs alot easier then some others I have seen. As for guage thickness I think that mine were about 3/16 thick. Tough enough for the stuff I ride through. The rest of the stuff I found at TT but Robert now carries Uniguard and TT case savers too.
Give Robert at MTR Sports a PM and he can probably show you one.

I really like the service and product that Thumper Talk has and it makes buying everything I need super easy. There are also some other great sites that have great product at a good price, at least it was a good price when our dollar was stronger.
Just my two pennies worth. :TTT:

I support buying in Canada when it makes sense to do so, but if you can't find it here or the price is too high I have my stuff shipped to "Hagens of Blaine" and since I live only about 20 minutes from the border I just drive across, pick it up, declare it when I come back across and sometimes I have to pay GST and PST and sometimes I don't.I don't have any affiliation with Hagens I just really like the service that they provide. Look them up on google.
