Description
The Heavy Hitter V2 Skid Plate for the Talaria Sting MX3, MX4, and MX5 is built to protect the most vulnerable part of your bike the motor. Made from 7075-T6 billet aluminum side rails and a 10mm replaceable bash plate, it’s been tested to withstand over 6,500 lbs of force, far outclassing plastic skid plates and OEM options.
The updated V2 design clears the EBMX XTA Core motor and all aftermarket motors, solving the fitment issues of earlier versions. Strike angles are engineered to slide over rocks, roots, and logs instead of hanging up, while ventilation slats keep your motor cool. The extended tail section adds extra coverage, and if you do manage to damage the bash plate, it’s replaceable in minutes. Side rails are lifetime warrantied bend them and we’ll replace them for free.
This is the last skid plate you’ll ever need if you ride your Talaria the way it was meant to be ridden: hard, aggressive, and without holding back.
