I have ran the Yamaha "Ultra Plate" for a season now and have issues with it.
I had so much ice between the skid plate and subframe/bellypan that it pulled a bolt right through the front plastic. Luckly I had used a different mounting setup for the bolts underneath, or I'm sure they'd be broke/gone like I've read others mention.
So, what other options are there?
I'm not too keen on the Float plate, looks like a big shovel scoop, and may have the same results?
Is there a different skid plate design available? Aftermarket options?
Or should I just buy another 80$ ultra plate and try to reinforce (fender washers?) the front bolt holes through the plastic?
