Those frame bolts can be a bugger for sure. Just installed mine over the weekend. Great piece of protection, and a good price. I had my plate powdercoated for some added protection and a cleaner almost invisible install. Great video and instructions.
I just ordered the black one. Hopefully it won’t scratch easily but if it does, it’s not something I’m looking at anyways. Will ship later this month. Thanks for the informative video.
Nice skid plate. Do you know if anybody makes a plastic skid plate for these bikes? Being a dirt bike rider also I have a plastic one on it and it’s been great. Am betting if Harley puts one on the newer models it will be plastic.
@@BugManRides I did think that maybe I would exchange, but decided that I like the look - and also figured that overtime, the black skid plate would scratch, and begin to look “dinged” up more than just a plain uncoated plate.
What a useless and expensive piece of added weight on your harley. Are you doing Trail riding or something. Some people just can't stop adding. You should spent your money on a better oil cooler protecter😮
@@tricgix2949 Actually, very useful! There are definitely reports of damage to the wires and even radiator hose from road debris being kicked up by the front tire. Really does not weigh much at all. Overall an almost “must have” addition! 😃
The water pump and wiring is under there . Harley should have done something like this to protect the components. I’ve seen plenty of damage from street riding . Excellent idea and product . I have it on my bike .
Thank you for making this video, it was helpful

@@kennyd6933 I’m unfamiliar with anyone elsewhere who makes a skid plate for the CVO. However, I’m sure someone will come out with another one soon!
