No, I'm not too crazy about it but it came with the bike. Everything else I own has PRM plates on them. PRM makes a quality piece but I cant justify replacing the DG since it does its job.

200xman, are those tank scoops, the Maier Super scoops?? They look good, but alot bigger than my stock, cracked ones.

Ditto on the frame tweak theory....
I would bet that can happen with the 6 pack rack too.

I say the possibility of a tweaked frame can, and probably will happen no matter what grab bar you have on, if you look at the 4 options they have on http://prm-atv.com/MN.asp?pg=products&grp=40&mfr=2, the material they use to hold their product to our frames seems to be the same on all of them, maybe 1 1/4 by 3/16 thick??

If I trash my frame, I do have another, Bruce you seemed to have lost interest?

The PRM grabs are awesome IMHO. I only use the Desert grabs as I like the beefiness and the way you can grab on to them when you need to.

I prefer the RAD skids though. For the cost of the PRM.250 skid(110.00 + ship) I can buy the Rad skids(79.95 free ship). They are both .250!!!! The engraved "RAD" looks awesome 2. PRM makes awesome products, but they are very costly. I have spent over $1200.00 on their products in the last 2 years and when I contacted them to see about frequent buyer discounts as I have 2 more machines to buy complete skids for, they laughed!!!!!!! I am laughing at giving my monies to a comapny who appreciates a NEW customer!!!

Yeah they are the super scoops. They rub the forks a little at full lock but it doesn't seem to affect them.

Man.. those 6 pack racks.. seems useful and all, but kinda like going out with a fattie.... not so sure about the looks.

the only thing i didnt like about my X with the six pack rack is that you can't stand it up on the grab bar anymore.
