Great easy to follow video. The circlip pliers certainly make all the difference and glad it's not just me that has to do a few takes to get it right :-)). Good to see another quality product from AltRider. Keep up the good work.
Nice of you to do this but, word to the wise: don't make the same mistake I did and follow this video exclusively. it omits two crucial steps: You must remove the OEM skid plate brackets and secure the side stand bolts. Please consider revising this video. Thanks.
Thanks for the question. I chose the Altrider skid plate because it connects with the Altrider engine guards, it extends past the centre stand, and it has a gap to access the oil drain plug. It is well made and very robust at the expense of being heavy adding weight to an already heavy bike. Cheers.
Thanks for taking the time to watch the video and give us feedback. You are right. We filmed it but inadvertently missed that step during post-production. Sorry for that. I'll take this up with the director.
Just finished installing this on my 23 GSA. Thanks for the video. It helped a lot.
That's awesome it helped with your '23 GS.
Used this video together with the Altrider provided installation manual and it couldnt have been easier to mount the skidplate to the bike!
That's fantastic to hear. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Thank you for the detailed video. I wish could afford a new bmw GS. Good and informative.
Thanks for watching!

Thank you so very much! Glad to hear we are helping in some way or another.
Great video again! Thanks guys.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks for feedback and the comments. We made an assumption by omitting that piece and that's never a good idea. Cheers.
Hi, did you remove the original steel brackets that's bolted to the engine holding the stock skid plate?
Hi Cass, yes we did. apologies if we didn't mention or show that.
Hello! I have a 2019GSA & I am struggling to get the frame & the engine to align on the left side. Hints??? Thanks :-)
Hi Rik, sorry to have taken so long to get back to you. I will refer this to Jeff and see if he has any ideas as he owns the BMW.
2AwesomeDadsAdventures I laid the bike down on its right side & it came together enough to get it bolted properly :-)
Hi there. Funny that. I had to enlist my son with the muscles to help me align the pieces on the right side.
The oem spacer is aluminum not plastic.
Why did you choose the alt rider skid plate vs the other brads?

After you took the snap ring off, and insert replacement spacer, you cut video and did not show how it mounts ;(

I am the director and I say it's Jeff's fault. ( He's so bossy ) Sorry that was missed in the video.
