Kawasaki KLX230R Skid Plate
This skid plate bolts straight to your KLX230R and shields the undercarriage from rocks, logs, and trail debris. You get everything you need to mount it—no drilling into the frame required. Installation takes just a few minutes, and the whole thing is built right here in the USA.
What You're Getting
- Full-coverage aluminum skid plate (your choice of thickness and material below)
- Custom Chromoly brackets and fasteners made to stay tight and rattle-free
- All hardware needed—nothing else to buy
Material Choices
3/16" Aluminum (Standard)
5052 H32 aircraft-grade aluminum, 0.160 inches thick, with a clear anodized finish. Solid protection that weighs less than the overlay option.
3/16" Aluminum with 1/4" UHMW Overlay (Heavier Duty)
Same aluminum base as above, but topped with a 1/4" layer of UHMW polyethylene. This combo absorbs impacts better and cuts down on noise when you're bouncing over rough ground.
The Hardware Story
We designed custom Chromoly brackets specifically for the KLX230R. They're more than twice as strong as regular steel, so they won't bend or fail. The fasteners stay locked in place and come out clean whenever you need to remove the plate.

Black Powder Coat Finish
Want it in black instead of the natural aluminum look? Add a black powder coat for a tougher, darker finish. Just know that if you go this route, plan on an extra 1-2 weeks before it ships out.
