Some rear end protection...

That's a sweet Cr500 linkage swing-arm skidplate you have there. I was looking for one yesterday online and saw some pictures on an old atvriders forum post. Yours looks brand new did you just get it?

Good to see that Pro-Tect is still in business. For awhile I was hearing that the guy quit the business

I was also under the impression they had quit. Very high quality product...good to see they are still around.

I thought they were out of business too. I called the number (317-467-1701) on my skid plate and got Dan on the line. They are in business and these things are about as strong as skids get as you all probably know. Little bit pricey but Stainless is nor cheap or easy to deal with.

Got me some Giddy Up!!! Big thanks to Arlan. What a great guy to deal with.

Very nice motor - 300 PV?

I like that LED is welding the name plate badge onto the pipes now.

Nice! I'm wondering about that pipe...it looks different than my 350G, i'm assuming it's different due to your engine size

Yeah it's a 300 PV and uses the 250-300 style pipe.

Not much has changed except for attaching the subframe and new OEM bolts. Next update is probably a month away when my stem and tie rods get here. Went with a chrome stem. Probably sending swingarm and upper arms back to Laeger for chrome. Might go with same color as frame for lower arms. Was also considering OEM silver for arms and swinger.

Did yours bolt up? I can only mount 3 of 4 bolts without drilling.

Same problem. The front one closest in the picture does not line up without me drilling/egging the hole (est 1/4" off). The rear seems to be square and the other front hole matches up and seems to line the skid up correctly with the chain. Guess something changed over the years.

That's the exact same problem I have, and was curious if it was my swingarm skid mount. I plan to let Dan know, and let you know what he says. Thanks Bob!

I thought it was my swingarm...lol. Glad he still makes them but I agree he needs to know his jig or bolt template shifted on him. Especially considering what these cost.

Update - Placed an order with Laeger for a chrome Protrax stem and some new tie rods.
