Yamaha T7 - Gut Guard Skid Plate Install - Euro 4 and 5

[@D-Rock-p5y]

Thank you Camel! No one except you has mentioned frame rail alignment, it all makes sense now!

[@trompelemonde4728]

Thank you for the quality pan and thorough and clear instructions. Feeling great about my purchase !!

[@Revy8]

this bashplate ranks in top 3, but after learning that this is a Canadian company, you get my money! Fellow Canucks, we need to support local in this economy.

[@twowheeledsmurph]

Another great video by Cory and team. Sorry you have to deal with some people like that. I (and 4 of my friends who have your gut guard) have had zero issues with it - as well as all the other stuff we've ordered from Camel. Sounds to me like that customer just didn't want your guard and needed an excuse to return it. Keep up the great work! We and others will always support you and be long time customers. Cheers from YEG.

Followed the instructions in this video, and the skid plate mounted right up to my 2022 T7. Thank you Camel ADV for another awesome product!

[@MeerkatADV]

Some people just really struggle with the instructions, the joke is always that you must be 10% smarter than the equipment you are using. With the various Camel ADV products I have on my bike, fitment has never been a problem.

[@CamelADV]

We've had a couple returns and a few emails. It's easier and better for everyone involved to simply update the install video to cover potential snags!

[@HansSoloYolo]

Thank you as always for the video. People need to READ INSTRUCTIONS if they can't figure it out, and definitely watch the video. I mounted my Camel skid plate with no issues. Feels super durable and I can't wait to put it to the test this spring!

[@LNLMotorsports]

It is amazing that it takes this level of hand holding these days. The products and videos are enough for me to feel like your business is worth supporting. Thank you and good luck!

[@williammartin2368]

I had to adjust my bottom bar passenger side. It wasn't a issue at all. By far the best bash plate I've seen and use. Should have been the first thing I installed.

[@Gen-X.Adventures]

Hey guys, Just installed mine, and it fit great after loosening the right side mount bar. I feel better now that it's on there for protection. Nice and tough, good air flow, and really like the UHMW strip for ease of sliding over obstacles, rear link protection, and i believe it quiets the undercarriage. Well designed! Great job!

[@ThreeBikeMike]

I installed the bash plate and the install video was so helpful. Mounting holes did not line up to the frame rails, so as the video tells, I loosened the frame rail on the right hand side, and it made everything work perfectly. I like the extra support given on the tail end also. Good product!

[@2001cusito]

I had some difficulty re installing the gut guard after taking it off for the second time to do an oil change. No doubt the cradle frame shifted a little bit. Love Camel ADV products.

[@ar2043]

What a phenomenal plate

[@CamelADV]

I'm glad you like it!

[@alexjmoore1907]

Thanks for the great descriptive video. Gut guards line up perfectly on our new 2022 T700s. Thanks again!!!

[@CamelADV]

Glad to help!

[@S.Michaelis]

Helpful and my guard only required slight loosening of lower bolts of mount. I used a large furniture clamp to bring in the mount perhaps only a couple of mm. You realize just how thin the factory guard is in comparison. 👍

[@dennybikeyface]

as they say in the technology industry, RTFM. i found the slip saying to watch this video packaged with the skid plate, i watched the video, i took their advice, and after initially not lining up with the rails the thing mounted beautifully. the only problem is that the skid plate is still pristine while the rest of the bike is filthy, gonna even that out this afternoon 🤘 sorry that guy was such a douchenozzle, people should have more respect for small manufacturers making stuff in the USA. i'm so impressed, i'll be buying the high-mount fender kit and a bunch of other stuff from you guys soon!

[@BSpenceTravels]

It's a Canadian company, no?

[@trapskilla]

It sucks you get so much flak… I imagine its par for the course with this type of stuff. Thanks for providing such in depth tutorials and info! I was having a lot of trouble getting mine on last night. Hopefully those rails are the answer. Gonna give it another go later

[@CamelADV]

It definitely comes with the territory. Some people's delivery of criticism could be more diplomatic but they almost always have some validity to them. We included info about the rails in the box (before updating the video) not everyone looks at the paperwork. It is what it is.

[@479_adv]

Has anyone reported the Gut Guard compatibility with the Outback Motortek centerstand? It seems to be the lightest centerstand out there I have found.

[@yorkchris10]

I always like a good tolerance story.

[@Twistsquishbang]

Hahaa glad you cleared this up with the alignment issue as I took my shiney new tenere’s skid plate off to spray ACF50 over the engine and bloody eck could I get that thing back on! Now I understand why thank you👍🏻 one question I have a 22 euro 5 but fully intend to DeCat it and go with the SC project headers could I fit the euro 4 skid plate(now the cat has gone) or should I still go ahead with the euro 5 ( I only ask as you mentioned the euro 5 is a tad longer and I’m trying to keep things tidy)😅

[@adamz5458]

This might be old news to most but is that a new high exhaustmod from you guys?

[@adamz5458]

Looked it up on your website. Looks great!

[@twowheeledsmurph]

@@adamz5458 Yup! Just got put on there last week. Looks awesome!

[@CamelADV]

[@davehartsock9106]

Great video as always. Does the Camel ADV skid plate work with the touratech lower crash bars?

[@CamelADV]

Yes, it sure does.

[@davehartsock9106]

Looks like a great product. For the T7. Will it work with Touratech lower crash bars and the Altrider aluminum center stand. I know I already asked the question about the lower crash bars and your skid plate but the was back when I thought I was getting a 2021. Now is going to be a 2022. (The cat is in a different spot). Just double checking and confirming on the Altrider center stand. TY

[@cdapplecraft3594]

Thanks for the info on the euro 5 skid plate. I plan on using your camel tank and one of your high mount exhaust with Mosko moto rackless 80. Is one high mount better than the other?? They both look great.. thanks

[@CamelADV]

Either exhaust system will work with the set-up you mention. My GF uses the Rally bend with her Reckless bags and I use the Enduro (and sometimes Rally) with my Reckless. Mosko's exhaust heat shield is a good idea to keep the bags from contacting the exhaust.

[@alvaroalvarado3398]

Can I use a center stand with this skid plate?

[@CamelADV]

You can.

[@yukonpeter]

Is it ok to use a hydraulic motorcycle lift underneath the Camel skid plate?

[@CamelADV]

Yup, we do it all the time!

[@twowheeledsmurph]

Yup. The Camel gut guard is very strong. We've had zero issues on all our different lifts.

[@elderrider9298]

If that customer didnt want that skid plate i would of taken it off his hands

[@nearest7]

Great video ! Does camel adv skid plate fits with outback motortech crash bars ?

[@CamelADV]

Yes! They play well together.

[@nearest7]

@@CamelADV perfect thank you !

[@timbrownridge5022]
