21 Different Yamaha Ténéré 700 Skid Plates

[orbsurfer]

When I was looking for a more heavy duty skid plate for my Ténéré 700, I came across 21 different skid plates on the market. 

 

Most skid plates are made of 4 mm aluminum, but 3mm, 3/16" (4.8 mm) and 5 mm aluminum are also used, together with 2 mm steel, and 8 mm HDPE (plastic).

 

I find it pretty amazing that so many companies across three (maybe four, but I think the OEM Heavy Duty Yamaha skid plate is designed and made in Europe) continents are taking a stab at this piece of protection for our bike!

 

 

These are the skid plates for the Yamaha Ténéré 700 I came across:

If you eliminate the ones without a secure attachment at the rear to take the load off  of the footpeg castings how many are left ?
