About the TB Electric Moto Full Chassis Skid Plate
The TB Electric Moto Full Chassis Skid Plate is complete undercarriage armor designed to protect the entire lower frame, motor casing, battery compartment base, and rear suspension linkage of the Sur-Ron electric dirt bike. While factory guards cover only the lower motor case, the TB Electric Moto skid plate extends from the front frame down-tube all the way to the rear suspension linkage pivot.
Manufactured from thick 8mm High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), this skid plate provides superior energy absorption compared to metal guards. When bottoming out on a rock ledge, the 8mm HDPE plate distributes the impact force across the entire subframe rather than transmitting a localized shock wave, protecting sensitive internal electronics from violent jarring.
Low-Friction Obstacle Gliding: HDPE has a naturally low coefficient of friction. When crossing logs, boulders, or concrete ledges, the bike glides smoothly across obstacles rather than catching or gouging like aluminum plates.
Suspension Linkage Protection: The rear section extends beneath the rear shock linkage triangle and lower pivot bearings, shielding vital seals and needle bearings from rock roost and direct ground strikes.
Installation & Maintenance: Align the front frame brackets first, loosely install the center and rear linkage hardware, and torque all bolts evenly to 12–15 Nm. Periodically remove the plate after muddy rides to clear packed debris.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Why choose an HDPE full chassis skid plate over an aluminum plate? A: HDPE flexes elastically under impact, absorbs energy without permanent denting, and features a low-friction surface that glides smoothly over logs and rocks without catching.
Q: Does this skid plate protect the rear suspension linkage? A: Yes. The plate extends rearward beneath the lower shock mount and linkage pivot, protecting bearings from rock strikes.
Q: How thick is the TB Electric Moto skid plate? A: It is manufactured from heavy-duty 8mm thick High-Density Polyethylene.
Q: Does the skid plate protect the high-voltage battery floor? A: Yes. The full-length design shields the entire underside of the battery tray and frame rails.
Q: How do I clean mud from behind the skid plate? A: Unbolt the four mounting fasteners during routine maintenance to wash out packed dirt from around the motor casing.
Viscoelastic Energy Dispersion & Frame Rail Shielding: High-Density Polyethylene provides superior energy absorption compared to metal guards. When bottoming out on a rock ledge, the 8mm HDPE plate distributes the impact force across the entire subframe rather than transmitting a localized shock wave, protecting sensitive internal electronics from violent jarring and preventing frame rail gouging. The heavy-duty polymer construction eliminates aluminum resonant noise.

Full Linkage Undercarriage Coverage & Impact Elasticity: The rear portion of the 8mm HDPE plate wraps around the lower shock linkage pivot, ensuring the suspension linkage glides over logs and rocks without catching or suffering bearing damage. The resilient polyethylene material dampens trail noise and resists gouging on jagged granite boulders.
