Yes, plastic! This is a product from our friends at Acerbis. Ultra tough injection molded reinforced composite. Flexible Heavy-Duty Polypropylene will not effect chassis ability to flex, will not effect handling

It also reflects less engine noise, bike will run quieter and cooler compared to alloy skid plate. Full coverage, mounts to existing threaded holes at the rear of the frame.

Thick carbon fiber plate with many advantages over aluminum.
The use of anti-ballistic composite material provides a longer fatigue life and greater tensile strength than aluminum.
Composite plates are molded to the exact shape desired, making for a closer fit and a more protective plate.
Composite plates absorb vibration and do not amplify sounds like aluminum plates do.
When hit hard, aluminum permanently deforms, bending frame tubes and slicing into water pumps.
Composite plates will bounce back from hard hits and look great long after aluminum plates give up.
Skid plates protect the side engine cases and the water pump in addition to the frame and the center case.
Designed with a high front to keep mud from building up on the engine.
Mounting hardware included.
