Went for a rip in some fresh pow and not even 10 minutes in, I blew a belt. Got the machine home with the spare belt and started cleaning it out.
Thank you Travis for such an awesome product.
Your belly pan protector saved a lot of parts from getting damage. The force is amazing I took photos to show your product works and saves the panels and more.
Amazing, the sheet metal is very thick gauge and tuff to bend, that belt spinning at 9000rpm can do some damage. Would have been a lot worse without the barn of part belly protector. Thanks Travis!

My bop guard took a major hit last year similar to yours. For sure it saved me from buying new plastics. His is one of the lowest priced available too.

Looks the same as my buddies sidewinder when his belt blows..
I think he’s on number 3 or 4 with over 10 000 miles but when it blows it blows, all that’s left is rubber chips and a whole lot of cord wrapped up everywhere..

I have one on order but they were out of stock......on back order. Hope I don't blow a belt next week. The original owner never did though but I have a feeling he was an easy rider.

Travis makes GOOD stuff! And supports us all very well, one of the very few who will make a part based on our feedback/input.
