I’ve got a 2016 650 Max XT on the way, and was going to order some skids while I wait for it to arrive. I don’t want to get another war started regarding the virtues of one brand vs. the next, or plastic vs. aluminum. There is plenty out there on that. My question is related to the installation itself and the hardware that is supplied.

So, for the plastic skids offered from the various brands (BRP, IB, etc):

1 – What hardware is supplied with each brand? Pluses and minuses of the hardware supplied?

2 – Installation….does one brand have the reputation for being easier or more difficult to install compared to the next?

3 – Any other comments regarding hardware or installation/instructions, etc?

Thank you!
