Ricochet Skid Plate for Husaberg FE 501 (1997–2004 and 2013–2014)
The FE 501 has always been the bike for riders who want serious power and capability. Whether you've got an early model or one of the final 2013–2014 units, this skid plate bolts right on to shield your engine and frame from rocks, roots, stumps, and whatever else the trail throws at you. It's made from aircraft-grade aluminum that's thick enough to actually take a hit. Install takes minutes—no drilling, no tapping, no surprises. Just bolt it down and get riding.
What You Get
- One skid plate with clear anodized finish
- Heat-treated Chrome-Moly clamps that hold everything in place
- All bolts and fasteners you need for installation
The Material
This plate is built from 5052-H32 aircraft-grade aluminum, 0.160" thick. That thickness gives you real protection without adding unnecessary heft. The clear anodize coating comes standard on every one—it protects the metal and keeps things looking clean over time.
How It Mounts
The heat-treated Chrome-Moly clamps grab your bike without any drilling or tapping. They stay tight and won't rattle loose on rough terrain. If you ever need to pull it off for service or shipping, the whole thing comes off just as easy.
Black Powder Coat Option
Want a blacked-out look instead? You can add a tough black powder coat finish for $30 extra. Just know that if you pick this option, add another 1 to 2 weeks to your shipping time while it gets coated.
Made in the USA.
