I'm looking for a full underneath set of skids for my '07 YFZ. I don't want to pay a whole lot, but I don't want something so cheap it'll just fall off.

So, you guys have any suggestions? Any of them out there truly worth their price?

Also, what's the stock jetting for a YFZ?

Thanks, guys.

i know stock pilot jet is 42 and i think main is 155.. don't remember on the main for certain.. skid plate? never owned one.. stocker got pulled off and thrown in the extra parts pile lol the gytr stuff usually fits good with out having to drill out the holes or anything, with other brands you never know if you'll have to modify or not..

$50 (for a new one) + shipping. Comes with all hardware. P/M me
*** the picture is pretty old. The skid is now held on with screws in the stock mount positions *********

The best skid plates you can buy are PRM. If you are doing extreme trail riding, thats what i would go with.

I have these on my yfz and had them on my old 400ex, i will never buy another skidplate. I ride along train tracks, ride all over rocky trails and huge rocks hardly even dent them.

My buddy has a PRM rear grab bar and while on a wheelie doin a speacial K he came back on the back bar, and it broke his sub frame and didnt break the back bar.

What size would you recommend getting in that PRM Skid? I noticed they have anywhere from a .125 to a .250. I know thicker is better, but is it necessary?
