KTM 390 Adventure Skid Plate Comparison

A quick comparison between the KTM Powerparts Skidplate (Bashplate) and the one produced by B&B Offroad Engineering. Followed by some install footage and an overview of the B&B plate fitted to my KTM 390 Adventure.

Have the same basher. The tolerance between the center mountain bracket and the header on the bottom is so close it will rattle if you don't fine tune your adjustments while installing. After that is done in no time it's a very well made and heavy duty bash plate. Total confidence. I did take a while to get shipped to the United States but worth it. Great review

Thanks for the feedback and the tips Scott.

Thanks for the video. In market for a bash plate for my 390. Very helpful info.

[@Dunno2430]

Thanks for the feedback. Glad it helps.

The B&B bracket mounts to the engine case? That's not good if you have a hard hit it is going to crack the engine case.

[@Dunno2430]

This could be true, though it would need to be a very hard hit. The B&B mounts to the same places as the PowerParts plate so you are no worse off than before as far as that’s concerned.

I wish we got the power parts here in india.. I'm looking for a metal bash plate for my 390.. very less options in india

[@Dunno2430]

You seem to have lots of choice in India when it comes to crash bars and GPS / Phone mounts. My somewhat used, slightly damaged powerparts bash plate is for sale but I’m not sure about cost to send to India 😉

[@ericlarson63]

Who did you buy it from? I love that your dog was in and out of the video!

[@Dunno2430]

bboffroad.com.au yep the family like to drop by. That’s what happens with spur of the moment videos I guess. 😉🙏

Hi sir
Will it fit to Ktm duke 390 2023 ?

[@Dunno2430]

I couldn’t say but I very much doubt it.

[@flyinryan7340]

I appreciate your review! I was wondering, how does ground clearance compare between them, any loss with the b&b?

[@Dunno2430]

Hi Ryan as far as ground clearance goes both only just clear the exhaust so there would be very minimal difference. Certainly not enough to notice from riding. The B&B does
come out squarer at the front so the gap between the engine and the front wheel would be slightly less. Kind Regards Graeme

What screen are you using for your ktm 390 ?

[@Dunno2430]

Hi Ali that’s a rally screen from radegarage.com A great piece of kit! Kind Regards Graeme
