Description

Extreme Skid Plate

Fits the R1200 GS LC + Adventure LC

Three part protection with replaceable individual elements. This allows you to disassemble and replace individual parts, if ever necessary. Thanks to the triple construction, we were able to design a complex total protection system.

Shock absorbing base plate: in contrast to the original engine protector, the Extreme skid plate is attached to a solid, stable base plate. It is connected to the engine by strong rubber mounts, which can absorb impacts and recover to their original shape.

Damage to the threaded holes in the motor housing is prevented and the base plate will not bend permanently (in contrast to the original, which is rigidly attached.)

The facts:

Raised at the front and three-dimensionally angled, preventing snagging the undercarriage of your bike.
Raised header pipe protection.
Extended at the rear to protect the collector.
No reduction of ground clearance, compared to the original.
Additional support frame for complete shock isolation between the protector and the motor housing.
Made from 4mm thick, strong aluminum.
Slim design despite complete protection.
Nearly indestructible due to the three-dimensional construction.
No modification at the motorcycle necessary. Easy mounting.
All maintenance work possible without removal.
Comes with inspection hole for oil change service.
Complete mounting kit included.
Made in Germany.

This engine protector has already proven its ability on the tracks around Agadir and in many other races as well as in many other extreme tests.

Good So Far

The skid plate arrived within 3 days. Installation was pretty easy and straightforward, although I would underscore what reviewer Jim Reese suggests about lining up the grommets from the support frame with the skid plate. I've done some pretty aggressive riding and the skid plate is holding up well. It looks great as well on the bike. My fellow GS riders think it looks awesome on the bike. Installed on a 2015 R1200 GS Adventure. Thanks!

2017 BMW 1200gsa extreme skidplate

Easy installation looks awesome, also protects the header pipes, really light but built strong. Hase a hole to access the drain plug, worth the money. Enjoy👍

2017 bmw 1200gsa Wunderlich extreme skid plate

The skid plate came with a couple of scratches that were covered with a black sharpie pen. No big deal it's not a show bike it's for getting out in all terrains, the skidplate is extremely well built. Installation was easy really didnt need the instructions. Excellent mounti g hardware and the skidplate not only looks great it will be completely functional, without alot of extra weight. I will be purchasing more products from Wunderlich for my GS because the quality is above and beyond. Thanks J.H

Quality protection

I recently purchased a 2018 GSA and I was looking for something that would protect the headers other than clamping the bendable shields on the headers like my old bike. I decided to go with the Wunderlich brand because of their quality in ther products. It only took 3 days to arrive and all the parts were there, instructions were easy to understand, although I would recommend one thing is to install rubber grommets and leave them loose then attach skid plate with the little flat head screws and then tighten the rubber grommets with torque wrench while the two are together on the floor, then take apart and mount the first plate, doing this will insure that the rubber grommets will line up when putting the skid plate on. This product is a little spendy but worth it, looks good and tough.

Great skid plate !

I've looked at many skid plates for the GSA LC and this one seemed like the best . I wasn't disappointed. I like that it protects the pipes and you can drain your oil without removing the plate. Looks great too and typical Wunderlich quality. Installed easily and the fasteners are top notch .

Has an Oil drain hole !

I have done 3 different brands and this by far is the nicest design incorporating an oil drain hole and is very solid. Now other brands bolt on to create an exoskeleton which I do like but this design uses sacrificial bolts in case you Brapp too hard into a Mexican curb or massive rock. Installation was easy with no need to remove the side stand bolt like other brands, which can be a pain. Likes like the armor batman would put on his GS.

Far superior to the Touratech!!! Extreme quality and fits perfect.

I LOVE this skid plate! I bought the competitions skid plate and found it to be of low quality and impossible to install. I returned it for this one and could not be happier!!! This unit is far and away the best for my 2016 R1200GSA!!! The quality is first rate. WAY WAY WAY better that the Touratech unit! Even the hardware is superior! This unit has Torx screws that do not strip unlike the Touratech which has soft hex hardware. I can not recommend this skid plate enough!! You do not need the exhaust guards on this unit like you do on the Touratech. I paired this with the extender plate for the center stand and could not be happier!!

skid plate

The skid plate took about two week to get here so when it did I rushed down to put it on. It was packaged up really good. I open it all up and layed all my parts out on work beach and proceeded to install. I was mocking it up before I put the lock tight on. Thats when I realized the 6m X 10m flat head bolts were missing. I go back though all the packing, no bolts. I called Wunderlich U.S.A. nobody answered. This is a problem I've got a trip planned and cant wait two week for bolts bolts. I have a friend who runs a bolt business, I called him to see if he had any flat head 6m�10m SS tork bolts. He laughed said no but could order some. Three day later they came, my good friend said no charge. All though this dident cost me anything it certainly was a lot of trouble.

excellent addition to GS

The skid plate installed easily and works as advertised. It covers the lower part of the bike including the front of the pipes and is nice to be able to change oil without disassembly of anything,

Looks good so far

Fit was good and easy to install. I bought because it covers the header pipes well. Waiting on crash bars before I take off road to put skid plate to the full test.
