AltRider BMW R 1250 GS Skid Plate

[@Kornholeeoo]

Just installed the skid plate on my 2023 GSA. This thing is a beast! Didn't take too long. Of course I'm 58 and getting up and down off the floor probably took more time than the install! LOL. I'm gonna start tying strings to my tools so if I leave one on the other side of the bike, I can just pull them to me. I thought about making a video of it, but thought it would end up being a comedy sketch, so...anyway, it's on! Thanks for making a great product.

Glad you like it so much! We like the idea of the strings, but then you gotta remember to keep the strings within reach as well! 😅

Hands down the BEST skid plate available. The end.

[@TEB64]

I have several of Altriders products on my R1250GS and after riding 2 BDR's I can tell you they work.

[@jimbessette5353]

Any chance anyone has a video of an oil change? I just find it hard to believe there's not going to be oil all over the bottom of that plate. I could be wrong, but I think I need to see it to believe it.

[@HardwareG33k]

It's clear you put in a lot of thought to make sure it actually works for aggressive adventure riding. You're absolutely right when you call competitor products out for shortcuts or straight up design flaws. A skid plate should not be single-use, it should not be designed to fail from medium-force impacts. No doubt Altrider products are well engineered and well made. I just wish you guys made a skid plate like this for my Tiger 800! Unfortunately, nobody ever designed a skidplate like this for it.

After watching this, I have serious buyer's remorse for having got a different brand right upon launch. Alt Rider next time!

Will this skid plate work with the gsa’s factory lower crashbars?

[@AltRiderLLC]

Yes! You have to order it with the correct brackets. Here's the part numbers you want: R118-1-1202 (silver) or R118-2-1202 (black)

Looks gfeat6, I've got mine on order.

[@doodle0007]

Would this fit along with BMW OEM crash bars?

[@AltRiderLLC]

Yes, this skid plate works with the OEM crash bars.

Alt rider plz reply that with practice can an Africa twin (dct) handled like a 600cc adv bike on trails

[@AltRiderLLC]

Absolutely

[@vaishaligujar199]

@@AltRiderLLC and according to you which is the best adv motorcycle like your personal choice

[@AltRiderLLC]

@@vaishaligujar199 easiest to ride slow will be the f850gs, or Africa Twin. To ride fast.... KTM 1090r, but the new 790 looks tasty. Best street adv bike the tiger 800 xcx

[@vaishaligujar199]

@@AltRiderLLC and one last question xcx or twin dct

[@AltRiderLLC]

@@vaishaligujar199 mmmmm. Tough call. Street, xcx. Dirt, dct

Just looked at the Black dog skid plate, not even in the same league as the Alt ! Oil changes can get messy though boys. I have a solution that works. Contact me.

[@chotafallen8390]

Nice product but insane expensive. 470$ plus 19% for Germany plus shipping fee plus tax you are around 700€....

[@AltRiderLLC]

Hey Chota, thanks for the comment and interest in our skid plate. If you're in Germany, please check out our European site at AltRider.eu for a more economical way to have products delivered in Europe from our warehouse in the Netherlands.

[@chotafallen8390]

@@AltRiderLLC Thank you. Much better way I see. Now saving money starts ^^ Is it correct, that I can use the skidplate with my installed crash bar from other German brand?

[@steveaustin1820]

Doesn't hold a candle to a Black Dog skid plate.

[@williamhoward77wh]

How do you know?

[@drw1926]

This looks like a pretty stout plate with solid engineering. The AltRider skid plate on my '12 GSA is rock solid. I wouldn't go out on a limb and say this AltRider skid plate is "the best", but I don't see how anyone else would be significantly better.
