Yesterday I received the skid plate kit from Ricochet for my 2016 Yamaha Kodiak 700. It went on flawlessly, and is a very well-engineered fit. I forgot to take a pic of the bottom before I took off the factory set of plastic skid plates.

This is the ATV with all of the factory skid plates off.

This is the new kit installed, with the exception of the rear A-arm guards installed (they went on after I set the ATV back on all four wheels).

Front right side...

Lower view from front, where you can see all the plates...

I forgot to take a pic from the rear.

The aluminum plates are 3/16” thick, and should really do a good job protecting the underside of the ATV.


Jesus... I hope you know Him personally like I do.

Very nice! Way better than the plastic that comes on these Yamaha machines. How much harder does it seem like it'll be to spray out mud/leaves/pinestraw/etc. with the plates on?

I think there’s plenty of holes in the plates for mud and debris to wash out. But that’ll only happen once a year for me.... after-season wash job.
