Camel ADV Gut Guard Skid Plate – KOVE 800X
When it comes to engine protection you cannot have any compromises, which is why we choose the Built for War, Proven in Battle skid plate from Camel ADV!
You asked for armor. We delivered a tank.
The Camel ADV Gut Guard Skid Plate for the KOVE 800X isn’t just another bolt-on bash plate—it’s a full-on riot shield for your engine and suspension. We didn’t baby this thing. It got absolutely abused in the sandstone hellscape of Utah's Sand Hollow, pounded through the brutal ledges and slickrock of Moab, and then raced to a podium finish at the Desert 100.
Highlights:
5052 Aluminum Construction – Lightweight, tough as nails
Beefy Stainless Bracketry – Because flimsiness is for folding chairs
Energy-Absorbing Subframe Mount Plate – Keeps your oil sump how it belongs: unpunctured
Durable Powder Coat Finish – Holds up under rocks, roots, and roost
¼" UHMW Linkage Guard – Protects your suspension’s vulnerable bits with a chunk of industrial-grade plastic armor
Easy Install – No rocket science, no yoga poses, no regrets
The KOVE 800X, like many modern bikes, uses the engine as a stressed member—translation: no lower frame rails to mount to. That’s where our proven subframe mounting system comes in, borrowing engineering DNA from our Tuareg 660 and Pan America Gut Guards. The result? A mounting system that takes hits like a heavyweight boxer and shrugs them off.
⚠️ Note: This skid plate is not currently compatible with KOVE’s titanium decat race header. The larger outside diameter and forward positioning of the race header’s tubes interfere with fitment.
This isn’t some fashion accessory. It’s a functional fortress for your bike’s guts—and now your suspension linkage too.
