[pbk]

nice job!!

you must of hit something pretty dam hard ive gone over fallen trees before and havent even bent mine haha

 

[sean01]

seen heaps of them like that, its from engine vibration usually

 

[The_GDFP]

Chi-luminum. Still works good for road-racers to have a flat surface to set the bike on a stand

must of hit a huge log or just got a faulty one

 

[Hillz]

must of hit a huge log or just got a faulty one

nO THEY JUST BREAK COZ THE METAL USED IS VERY VERY VERY LOW QUALITY

 

[ISEY13]

yeh it called made in china!!!

 

[wogtaz ryder]

Yer got a few of them

 

[sean01]

the fact that it is made in china has very little to do with it..

mini bikes are considered a hobby so compromises are taken to lower the cost of manufacturing, altho some retailers take advantage of this when selling them with there outrageous prices..

steel bash plates are the best to have..

 

[wogtaz ryder]

The newer style has a added support to stop the front vibrating and cracking like that.

 

[Mr. Jones]

I wouldn't say that steel is any stronger. Mine is steel and cracked in exactly the same spot and i've never been harsh on it. My exhaust hangs lower than the bash plate and is unmarked. I only use my bike to follow my 4 year old on his 90 raptor.

I would however say steel is much easier to repair than alloy for the average jo.

 

[wogtaz ryder]

Again its the design of them ... the overhang of the front vibrates heeps , and cracks at the weak spot as shown in the picture... will happen to all of them sooner or later.......
